Product details

Handmade ceramic Stripe Elephant incense holder by Kay Train

A small elephant with plenty of character. Hand sculpted and painted by Kay Train in Brighton, East Sussex, this ceramic incense holder doubles as a decorative figurine for a shelf or mantelpiece. A long trunk, expressive black facial details and an orange-striped base bring a playful touch to warm off-white clay and a glossy finish.

Description

  • Maker: Kay Train
  • Made in: Brighton, East Sussex
  • Material: white earthstone clay
  • Colour: warm off-white with black facial details and an orange-striped base
  • Finish: shiny transparent glaze

From the maker

Kay creates bold silhouettes that bring folklore and nostalgia into conversation with modern culture. Having lived in Stockholm for a couple of years, she continues to draw inspiration from Swedish aesthetics. Now based in Brighton, she is also inspired by the bustle of the seaside city and the old folklore tales rooted in the East Sussex countryside.

What we love

We love its expressive face and the cheerful orange stripes beneath it. It is a thoughtful gift for an elephant lover, and a little sculptural companion to enjoy on a shelf even when you are not burning incense.
