First purchased for Jim Williams of "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil", a famous and wealthy art dealer of Savannah, Georgia. On the night of Jim William's murder my grandmother had the chair ready to give to Mr. Williams. He had paid her to find it for him, but after his death my grandmother kept the chair. It was part of the original set when the first African American church was erected in Savannah Georgia in 1859.

Information on the church can be found here: http://www.oldestblackchurch.org/html/welcome.htm.

The lamp hangs off of an arm that attaches to a plate that looks like leaves that screws into the wall.  It has a gold chain that the cord is weaved through. The lamp shade is pleated hard plastic that has some browns and greens in it.  

The table has wood in the base of the elephant and the table the rest seems to be solid wicker.  Except the tusks are made of wood.  Very detailed.  It was left by a 93 year old man so I have no idea how old it is.
