An ancient symbol of power and wisdom, the elephant has a long and storied history with the people of Thailand. To honor this majestic creature, artisan Vichan skillfully works with chisel and wood to achieve the fine details found within this unique bowl. This design features three powerful elephants standing proudly while supporting an ornate lotus blossom bowl. Expertly hand carved from rain tree wood, this piece is decorated with hand-woven rattan accents, which contrast beautifully with the deep brown color of the wood. A stunning example of functional art, this bowl will add an elegant touch of Thai culture to your home décor. PLEASE NOTE: The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design, sizing and weight. Variations will occur from piece to piece, measurements may vary slightly.
