The Wicker Elephant Table High/Low

CCC

I am such a fan of wicker elephant side tables. They make a wonderful statement piece for any lover of chinoiserie. At CCC, I have vintage and new versions and love them all.  This looks so good next to a chair, bed, or sofa. Style it with beautiful coffee table books, magazines, a wonderful candle, a pretty orchid, a small vase with fresh flowers, or whatever you like.

Great Find - The Wicker Elephant Table

Schumacher Florida

 

A favorite piece of mine at CCC is the wicker elephant table. This versatile piece is very Chinoiserie Chic and very popular. They can be used in any room of the house. Here is one with a tropical plant. Use one in the foyer for keys and mail, as a bedside table, next to a chair for books or magazines, in a powder room for guest towels, in a bathroom for bath towels, or in a nursery or child's room.

Wicker elephant tables are great in places like Florida and in beach houses. Vintage versions are found for as much as $1,000 and more. I used one of mine next to the Christmas tree this year.

I thought I would share a few pictures of my kitchen and breakfast room and one of my favorite pieces - a new wicker elephant table.

Amanda Lindroth has just come out with this wicker elephant console and a wicker elephant side table. Wicker elephant tables are such a classic of Chinoiserie Chic decor and these are really lovely examples.

Iconic Chinoiserie Pieces/The Wicker Elephant Stand

The wicker elephant stand/table/stool is an iconic chinoiserie piece that is very collectible. Nice vintage ones have gotten harder to find and go for very high prices on places like Chairish and 1stDibs. I really like them spray painted in fun colors and it's so easy to do. A perfect DIY anyone can handle. First, some inspiration.

How incurably stunning is this patio with the turquoise blue cushions and patio furniture?  I especially like the vintage wicker elephant table painted turquoise blue. Here are other painted examples. I have one that is natural, but I might be tempted to paint him.

These vintage wicker elephant tables have become quite collectable - this one is mine.

House Beautiful says that a conversation starter is essential for every room in the beautiful home.  I agree - this wicker monkey table is fabulous. Here are more examples of similar whimsical examples with Chinoiserie style. I especially love vintage animal pieces like monkeys and elephants - both very Chinoiserie.

I love this vintage wicker elephant table in the home of Rebecca De Ravenel. Its generous size makes it very functional. I too have a vintage wicker elephant table I found on eBay.

A Fabulous Chinoiserie DIY

This wicker elephant table sold this week on One Kings Lane for $355. As you can see, the wicker is damaged on top at one spot. I just bought the exact same one on eBay for $42 in natural wicker in perfect condition that is going in my One Room Challenge Chinoiserie Man Cave. I have seen painted ones listed on One Kings Lane as high as $450. The color on these is not original; they are newly painted.

This is a no brainer. Find one on eBay, Etsy, CL, an estate sale, or wherever and spray paint it yourself and save hundreds of $$$. I do think it's fun and functional that this one above has a glass top which of course makes it more practical for drinks.

Here is some color inspiration. In the bottom photo is one in natural wicker styled by Jamie Meares that looks exactly like the one I just scored.
