Vintage Elephant Cookie Jar with Sailor Cap – 1950s Ceramic Twin Elephant Series – Blue Bow & Basketweave – READ DESCRIPTION* Ships free*

$38.00
Sold Out
Sailing straight out of a mid-century kitchen, this vintage elephant cookie jar is equal parts kitsch and collectible. Featuring a textured basketweave body, sailor-style hat lid, and signature blue bow tie, this piece is believed to be part of the 1950s “Twin Elephant” set—one blue, one pink—made by American ceramic makers like McCoy, Shawnee, or American Bisque.

This particular elephant is full of charm and whimsy, but does show signs of its age and use.

**🛠 Condition Notes:
Multiple small chips on the rim of the white sailor hat lid (see photos)
Paint loss on both arms and light scratches to the surface
Crazing and age-related marks present, especially on the hat and rim
Interior is clean and usable, lid fits securely

Details:
🐘 Height: Approx. 10–11"
🐘 Material: Glazed ceramic
🐘 Color: Brown with blue/yellow accents, white lid
🐘 Lid Style: Sailor hat – doubles as a cute topper and handle
🐘 Era: 1950s
🐘 Origin: Unmarked but consistent with U.S. makers from that period

Perfect for collectors, display pieces, or anyone looking for that one-of-a-kind kitchen mascot who’s a little worn but full of heart.

🚚 Ships FREE via USPS Priority Mail or Ground Advantage
