About the Item

Bring a sculptural and whimsical accent to a room or patio with this vintage French faience elephant garden seat, crafted circa 1960. Modeled with its trunk raised for good fortune, the piece is richly decorated in an oriental-inspired motif, featuring an elaborate saddle blanket adorned with scrolling patterns, tassels, and medallion details. The ceramic body is hand painted in a warm brown and ivory palette, highlighted with soft beige tones and subtle glazed accents that emphasize the dimensional carving. The square top provides a practical surface, ideal for use as a martini table, occasional seating, or a decorative pedestal. The antique piece is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with a glossy finish and light wear consistent with use. A charming and versatile decorative element that adds character and global influence to both traditional and eclectic interiors. Dimensions: 21.5"W x 9.5"D x 16.5"H
