These sculptural wooden elephants are an excellent gift item, but we think you’ll probably want one for your own home decor as well. They will cozily live on your mantel, bookshelf, or in a nursery. Made of Baltic birch europly with walnut veneer.
Conceptualized and designed to honor our craftsman’s late grandmother, Doris, the smooth, simple shape of these elephants brings sophistication to what is sometimes viewed as a whimsical animal. These gentle giants are all style and class, though.
The wooden elephants are a great gift option for an expecting family, but they're also wonderful as decor in any room of the house. Crafted with Baltic birch europly, they have a walnut face that’s smooth and rich in color thanks to our oil and wax finish.
Handcrafted in Minneapolis
MATERIALS
(01) Veneered Baltic Birch
Our decor pieces are made using a beautiful high-end Baltic birch plywood from Columbia Forest Products®. Each of the 13 layers of the ply are solid wood, and a thick veneer in walnut wraps each face in rich tones. The Baltic birch is a sustainable product and will be very stable as the seasons change, unlike some solid wood products.
While many woodworkers conceal the edges of the plywood, we have made it our signature look to highlight the striped layers. Not only does this give a nod to the designers of the mid-century era, it makes every piece by Hossle Woodworks a work of art, and a unique, one-of-a-kind, creation.
(02) Finish
We finish our products with a mixture of pure tung oil, boiled linseed oil and wax. This means less harsh chemicals when we are doing the work, and a safer breathing experience for you. The end result is a durable, water-resistant matte finish that feels like a silky-smooth piece of wood.
Another benefit to the finish is that it allows for easy repair when scratches happen. Buff out the scratch with a piece of high-grit sandpaper and rub in some Howard Feed-N-Wax® and your piece is as good as new! less
