Global Crafts Wooden Napkin Rings Set of 6 - Hand-Carved Mahogany Elephant

• SIX CARVED ELEPHANTS: A set of six napkin rings, each one shaped like an elephant and carved from a single piece of African Mahogany. The sculpted form gives the ring real presence on a folded napkin, turning an ordinary place setting into something guests actually pause over before they unfold the linen. The elephant is the one animal most guests will pick up and turn over.
• SINGLE PIECE MAHOGANY CARVING: Every ring is cut from one block of African Mahogany using time-honored methods and simple hand tools, then finished to let the natural grain show through. There are no joins and no glued parts anywhere in the piece, so it stays as solid in the hand as the wood it began as. Carving from a single block is slower work, and it shows in how the ring holds up.
• FOUR INCH ELEPHANT SIZE: Each ring runs approximately 4 in long, 2.5 in high and 1.5 in wide, fitting most standard napkins with room to spare. Clean them with a soft dry cloth rather than water, and the whole set of six packs down into a compact box that stores flat in a sideboard drawer. Keeping wood away from standing water is the simplest way to preserve the finish.
• RUSTIC ELEGANCE AT TABLE: The natural wood finish suits rustic, safari and neutral table schemes, and works for dinner parties, holiday gatherings and plain everyday meals alike. Hand carving means slight variances in size and design between rings, so the set feels collected over time rather than bought off a shelf. Six elephants in a row down the center of a table make their own centerpiece.
• KENYAN CARVING TRADITION: Carved in Kenya by artisans who also support reforestation efforts, keeping both the skill and the timber supply available for the generations that follow them. Global Crafts holds Fair Trade Federation membership, which is what anchors fair wages behind each hand-carved elephant in the box.
