A hand carved elephant head in genuine Kashmiri walnut wood, made to hang on a wall or rest on a console. In many cultures the elephant stands for wisdom, strength and protection, which makes this piece a meaningful addition to a home, office or reception area.
Product Overview
The trunk, ears and forehead are shaped by hand from solid walnut, with fine texture cut into the surface so the face catches light and shadow. At roughly 12-16 inches it reads clearly from across a room without overwhelming a wall.
About Kashmiri Walnut Wood
Jammu & Kashmir grows most of India's walnuts, and trees from the Valley's high slopes give a dense, close-grained timber. It is naturally rich brown, holds fine chisel detail without splitting, and deepens in tone as it ages.
Craftsmanship
Every piece is carved by hand by skilled Kashmiri artisans. No machine routing is used, so small variations in grain and carving are part of each piece's character.

Story Behind the Craft
Walnut wood carving has been practised in Srinagar's old city for generations, with skills passed from master to apprentice inside family workshops.

FAQs
Is this made of real Kashmiri walnut wood?
Yes. It is carved from solid walnut wood sourced in the Kashmir Valley, not veneer or composite board.
What does an elephant symbolise in home decor?
The elephant is widely seen as a symbol of wisdom, strength, good fortune and protection. Many people place it near an entrance or in a workspace.
Can it be hung on a wall?
Yes. It is designed for wall hanging and can also stand on a shelf or console.
Why is Kashmiri walnut wood famous?
Valley walnut is dense and close-grained, so it holds deep, fine carving without crumbling. Combined with generations of carving skill in Srinagar, this makes Kashmiri walnut work highly regarded.
Will the colour change over time?
Walnut slowly deepens to a richer brown with age. This is a natural property of the wood, not damage.
How do I clean it?
Dust with a soft dry cloth. Avoid water, sprays and chemical polish.
Is it a good gift?
Yes. It suits housewarmings, office openings and corporate gifting, and carries cultural meaning beyond decor.
