Mid-20th Century Hand Painted Faience Elephant Garden Seat

About the Item

This interesting, vintage porcelain garden seat was found in France. Crafted circa 1960, the ceramic seating shaped as an elephant with his trunk raised (good luck sign in Asia), is heavily decorated in oriental finery; the colorful mammal has a rectangular seat at the top, and is hand painted in a brown and ivory palette. This unique sculpture is in excellent condition and would make a beautiful addition in any living room as a martini table or extra seating, or could be used on an outside patio as occasional table. Measures: 19" W x 7.5" D x 15" H.
