A symbol of both strength and wisdom, the Elephant is one of Thailand's most beloved animals, so much so it is considered a national treasure. This revered creature has inspired Thai Artisan Vichan to create this amazing hand carved wooden candle holder. Featuring a majestic elephant triumphantly marching with a decorative vase on its back and a delicate flower in tow, this piece is designed to hold two individual candles. Beautiful hand-woven rattan and rope accents create a stylish contrast against the deep brown color of the wood. This unique candle holder will make a glorious addition to any room in your home. 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.

ARTISAN STORY: Artisan Vichan grew up in a small village in northeastern Thailand, in an area surrounded by lush rainforest. At a young age, he found an appreciation for the beauty of nature. This has inspired Vichan to create beautiful artworks that celebrate nature while using natural and sustainable materials. Woodcarving has been in his family for generations and he was taught this craft by his father. With the money he earns from his business, Vichan is able to support his family while preserving the culture and heritage of his ancestors.
