Description

The elephant’s trunk, raised, curved, powerful, is one of the most auspicious forms in Indian art and Vastu Shastra. The Elephant Trunk Tray takes this beloved motif and builds it into something functional: a small tray or dish held within the curve of the trunk, perfect for keys, rings, coins, incense sticks, or small sacred items on a puja shelf.

Handcrafted by Udaipur artisans from quality material and finished by hand, each tray has the warmth and slight individuality of genuine handcraft. In Vastu, placing elephant imagery near the entrance of your home with the trunk raised is considered auspicious, and a tray at the entrance for keys or coins doubles this practicality.

A popular housewarming gift, a desk accessory with meaning, and a functional piece that earns its place in any home.

Perfect For

  • Office desk and shelf decor with artistic character
  • Gifting for art lovers, collectors, and creative professionals
  • Contemporary home decor that connects to Indian craft roots
  • Corporate gifting that makes a lasting impression
  • Anyone who appreciates handcrafted art in their everyday space

Frequently Asked Questions

What material is this piece made from?
Our artistic figurines are crafted from polyresin, wood, or a combination, painted and finished by artisans. Check the individual listing for exact material.

Are there variations from the product photo?
Yes. Each piece is handcrafted and hand-painted, so subtle differences in colour, finish, or detail are normal. No two pieces are identical.

How do I clean it?
Wipe gently with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid water on painted surfaces. Do not use chemical cleaners.

Is it fragile?
Handle with care. Polyresin pieces are sturdy but not indestructible. Keep away from edges where they could fall.

Is it gift-ready?
Yes. Comes in Premloom Envision packaging. Add a personalised gift message at checkout.

Why Premloom Envision?

You will find similar-looking decor in many online stores. Here is the difference: every Premloom piece is made by a named artisan family in Udaipur, Rajasthan. No factories, no resellers, no mass production. When you order, a real craftsperson goes to work. The slight variation in grain, colour, or finish is not a defect — it is the signature of handmade work. Your piece will never be identical to anyone else’s. That is what you are paying for.

Babla Wood Carving

Handcrafted in Udaipur, Rajasthan

Material

Babla wood (Acacia nilotica), natural lacquer finish

The craft: Babla wood is chosen for its hardness and fine grain — ideal for capturing the curves of a sitar neck or the roundness of a tabla. Craftsmen rough-cut with a hand saw, then spend hours with progressively finer chisels to achieve delicate musical detail.

The People Behind It

The musician figurine tradition in Udaipur dates back to royal court commissions. Today, artisan families like the Joshis continue this lineage, training their children in the same workshop where their grandparents worked. Each figurine is a portrait of Rajasthani musical culture.
