These artisan-crafted pieces feature an exquisite, heavily distressed chalk wash finish in soft muted teal, and off-white tones, perfectly capturing a timeless Chinoiserie, Hollywood Regency, or Boho-Chic aesthetic.

Because these are genuinely hand-carved from solid wood blocks, each elephant displays its

own individual character, visible chisel marks, and organic wood grain variations that make them completely unique from mass-produced resin or ceramic replicas.

Auspicious Symbolism: The

saddle blankets feature a beautifully hand-carved relief of the traditional Chinese 囍 (Double Happiness) character, representing love, joy, and prosperity. The top flat platforms are carved with a carved with a stylized 寿 (Shòu) character, symbolizing longevity and good health.

Approximate Dimensions: Total Height: ~20–21 inches | Base Length/Width: ~16.5

16.5 inches.

Condition Report:

Overall Condition: Vintage / Good Condition. These tables are structurally stable, completely functional, and ready to be used as side tables, plant

stands, or statement accent pieces.

Specific Blemishes: Due to the age of the solid timber and natural environmental drying over time, both elephants feature natural horizontal age-

horizontal age-cracks/splits along the rear base joints where the feet meet the bottom platform (please review all close-up photographs carefully). The elephant on the right shows a slightly wider fissure with minor natural wood loss/debris near the heel. These separations are cosmetic, typical for large solid wood carvings of this age, and do not impact the top-heavy stability of the tables. See less
