Elefante
$7,800
A hand-built clay object with a soft, rounded body and a vessel-like opening for dried flowers.
Elefante takes its name from its quiet, animal-like silhouette — a curved body, open center, and upright vessel form that feels both playful and sculptural. Its surface is dry finished with beeswax, giving the clay a warm sheen while preserving the natural texture of the material.
Designed as a sculptural object, Elefante can also hold dried flowers, branches, grasses, or simple arrangements. Each piece is made by hand in Mexico and carries subtle variations in shape, tone, surface, and finish.

Material & Use Note
Each clay object is handmade and fired in an outdoor oven. Small cracks, color variation, burn marks, ash residue, and surface irregularities may naturally occur during the firing process.
Because fire and wind can make one side of the oven hotter than another, tonal shifts and darker marks are expected. Small traces on the surface may come from ash, wood, or plant material touching the piece during firing.
These details are not considered defects. They are part of the life of the object and the process by which it is made.
Dry use only. Do not fill with water or liquids. Suitable for dried flowers, branches, grasses, or decorative use.
