Details

A delightful infusion of Mid-Century Italian whimsy and masterful craftsmanship.

This iconic 1950s ceramic sculpture, attributed to the renowned Italian manufacturer Girardi, takes the charming form of a stylized elephant carrying a howdah (basket). The piece plays with bold contrasts: a deep, glossy black glaze for the elephant's body beautifully offsets the pastel blue of the basket and the vibrant, hand-painted geometric details on the saddle blanket. Perfect as a standalone sculptural object, a small planter, or an eccentric desk accessory, it brings a sophisticated pop of retro Italian design to any contemporary interior.

Technical Details & Condition:

  • Estimated Period: 1950s (Mid-Century Modern).

  • Origin: Italy (Girardi manufacture).

  • Material: Hand-painted glazed ceramic.

  • Dimensions: Height 18 cm.

  • Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The glaze remains highly glossy and vibrant. Minor signs of wear consistent with its age, but no major chips, cracks, or structural repairs, preserving its original Mid-Century charm.
