Chime Elephant

We're kind of in love with this Chime Elephant – it’s one of those pieces that just stops people in their tracks, you know? It’s 14x14x13 cm of pure charm, made from sturdy ceramic that’s been hand painted to give each elephant this rustic, slightly bohemian personality. Nothing mass-produced or soulless here – the glaze always finishes up slightly different on each one, making every elephant unique. Retailers who stock these soon realise people connect with that one-of-a-kind touch. Not your average wind chime or animal decor. The hand painting means you get these gentle colour variations – little hints of greenish blue and earthy brown on the back, and a creamy white everywhere else. That muted palette is a natural fit for so many spaces: people want them in living rooms with lots of plants, as a fun focal point above a reading nook, or even hanging near office desks to break up the corporate monotony. They’re quirky but grown-up at the same time – great for customers looking for more creative styling options without losing sophistication. Stockists have had success using them as part of window displays. But they definitely work grouped on tables too. Some customers buy more than one for odd-numbered clusters. The elephants are large enough to be special but not so big they take over - just right for shelves and hanging installations. It’s hard not to notice the attention to detail – each trunk has a unique swirl in the glaze, and even the eyes have these little hand-placed dots that make them look friendly and inquisitive instead of cartoonish. People smile when they see them, which isn’t something you can say about most decor. We always mention that variations occur due to the handmade process because it’s important customers know what makes them stand out. Also, retailers like being able to talk about craftsmanship – feels more authentic than something off an assembly line. Great gift option for animal lovers (especially those into elephants), or anyone who loves artisanal ceramics with a soft presence.
