African Elephant For Sale on 1stDibs
Find the exact african elephant you’re shopping for in the variety available on 1stDibs. Find Pop Art versions now, or shop for Pop Art creations for a more modern example of these cherished works. Making the right choice when shopping for a african elephant may mean carefully reviewing examples of this item dating from different eras — you can find an early iteration of this piece from the 18th Century and a newer version made as recently as the 21st Century. When looking for the right african elephant for your space, you can search on 1stDibs by color — popular works were created in bold and neutral palettes with elements of gray, black, brown and gold. A african elephant from Joachim Schmeisser, James Lewin, David Yarrow, Nick Brandt and Drew Doggett — each of whom created distinctive versions of this kind of work — is worth considering. Artworks like these — often created in pigment print, archival pigment print and paper — can elevate any room of your home. A large african elephant can prove too dominant for some spaces — a smaller african elephant, measuring 3.25 high and 2.5 wide, may better suit your needs.
How Much is an African Elephant?
The price for an artwork of this kind can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — a african elephant in our inventory may begin at $2 and can go as high as $1,425,000, while the average can fetch as much as $6,193.
