One-of-a-Kind Finds
Jaipur Wooden Elephants
$22.00
-
Our Jaipur Wooden Elephants are handmade in Rajasthan, India. Each one features hand painted details in distressed, worn colors reminiscent of the finely costumed and painted pachyderms of Jaipur.
For centuries, India has had a long history with elephants. Traditionally a vehicle for Kings to appear before their subjects, these giant creatures now spend most of their days near the Amber Fort, a historic and opulent palace located high on a hill above the Pink City. Each year elephants are celebrated at the annual Holi Festival, where the animals are lavishly embellished in vibrant colors, textiles and jewelry.
Most commonly found in the form of the Hindu deity Ganesh, elephant symbols can be found all over Indian architecture, art and culture. They are widely celebrated across many facets of life.
We love that each elephant tells a story of its heritage in Rajasthani culture. They make a colorful addition to any shelf, whether in your living room, library, office or nursery.
-
Each elephant is approximately 8.5"H x 10"L x 3"W. Made of wood.
These wooden figures have been individually crafted by hand and no two are exactly alike. Designs and stylized distress may differ slightly from piece to piece. Please Contact Us if you have any specific needs or questions.

Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Dry completely. Avoid harsh cleaners or chemicals. Please handle with care.
Guatemalan Rug I
$230.00
-
This vibrant one-of-a-kind rug features a traditional design handwoven in the Totonicapan region of Guatemala.
Known for bold, geometric designs, the K’iche’ people in this Western Highlands area dye handspun virgin wool and cotton in natural shades of indigo and blue. The weavers blend the cotton and wool as they weave each rug on a foot pedal loom. Techniques and designs have been passed down through multiple generations and the weavers are dedicated to preserving this ancient handmade craft.
We love the classic blue and white hues, and the durability of this modern rug (it’s double sided!). Style it with mid-century or traditional furniture for the bespoke, well-traveled air of a worldly collector.
-
This rug is approximately 31" x 58".
Our Guatemalan rugs are authentic and high quality representatives of Mayan craft sourced in Guatemala. Due to their entirely handmade creation process, minor imperfections and color variations may be visible that speak to the handmade process and tell the story of its creator. No two rugs are exactly the same.
-
All of our textiles are handcrafted using the finest natural materials. We recommend a light vacuum for general upkeep. Please avoid direct or prolonged sunlight exposure. Professional dry cleaning recommended, although this rug may be hand washed with cold water and mild soap. Lay flat to dry.
