Handmade ceramic Circus Hat figurine by Kay Train
A little circus character for your shelves and your incense ritual. Hand sculpted and painted by Kay Train in Brighton, East Sussex, this ceramic figurine doubles as an incense holder. A tall black-and-off-white striped hat, expressive face and round dark cheeks give it plenty of personality, with a glossy finish that catches the light.

From the maker
Based in the seaside city of Brighton, Kay creates bold silhouettes that bring folklore and nostalgia into conversation with modern culture. Her work draws on both the bustle of the city and the old folklore tales rooted in the East Sussex countryside.
What we love
We love its theatrical striped hat and wonderfully expressive face. It brings a playful touch to a shelf or mantelpiece, whether you use it for incense or simply enjoy it as a small ceramic sculpture.
