<p>[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 989629, member: 84"]I got this today at a friend's 2nd hand furniture store (he found it in a storage auction he won). I thought it looked old & unusual compared to other elephant stands/garden stools I've come across. But it isn't made of porcelain & definitely is too light for concrete - any idea what it's made of? (it holds my weight when I sit on it)</p><p>Age? (You can see where the tusks have broken off; if they were there maybe I could tell what it's made of)</p><p>It measures 22" tall & - to me - is extremely detailed</p><p>Any thoughts on it / info about it would be greatly appreciated.</p><p>Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]205877[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205878[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205879[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205880[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205881[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205882[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205883[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205884[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205885[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205886[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
