Chairs, like horses, are most often supported by four legs, can hold up at least one person, and are used as dining surfaces during table droughts. Obtain haunch holders with today's Groupon: for $50, you get $200 toward handcrafted home furnishings at The Elephant’s Trunk.

The Elephant’s Trunk's experienced purveyors outfit homes with distinctive imported furniture, handcrafted from teak, acacia, and other hardwoods. Much like each human brain, each solid piece has its own individual grain, texture, and hard-lacquer finish. Give any room a themed, exotic look with one of The Elephant’s Trunk’s ornate furniture collections, or beautify the bedroom with individual selections, such as the Castle mirror ($225). The Havana end table’s weathered yet durable appearance ($198) lends morning coffee breaks a rustic charm, while the old-fashioned Astana dining chair ($179) affords a rattan perch from which to eye dinner guests suspiciously. Over time, the Elephant’s Trunk’s pieces may develop slight openings or cracks, which contribute to the furniture’s rustic character without interfering with its function as a structural base for pillow forts.
