Mid-20th Century Malaysian Hand Painted Faience Elephant Garden Seat

About the Item

Crafted in Malaysia circa 1960, the large ceramic elephant-shape seating is a vibrant piece of mid-century decorative art.

This unique porcelain figure is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, and would make a beautiful addition in any living room as a martini table, or used as extra seating on an outside patio.
