Description

Mid-Century Glazed Ceramic Elephant Garden Seat – 23" Tall

This vintage ceramic elephant garden seat, dating to the mid-20th century, showcases the intricate craftsmanship characteristic of Chinese export ware. Finished in a pale ivory glaze with ochre and terracotta accents, the elephant features detailed adornments, including sculpted tassels and a patterned saddlecloth. The flat, square platform atop the elephant's back serves as a functional surface, suitable for use as a plant stand, side table, or decorative accent.

Weighing approximately 50 lbs, this piece is both substantial and visually striking. Its design elements reflect the Hollywood Regency and Chinoiserie styles, making it a versatile addition to various interior or exterior settings.

Condition:
In good vintage condition, exhibiting age-appropriate wear. Notable features include glaze crazing throughout and minor hairline cracks near the base. These imperfections do not compromise the structural integrity or aesthetic appeal of the piece.

Size:

  • Height: 23 inches
  • Width: 10 inches
  • Depth: 20 inches
  • Weight: Approximately 50 lbs
