Giraffe Yogi: Christmas Ornament
Add some African charm to your Christmas holiday decor. This playful ornament, handcrafted by skilled Kenyan artisans, depicts a zebra in the tranquil lotus yoga pose. It offers a unique and delightful twist on traditional holiday decorations.
The Lotus Pose, also known as “Padmasana” in Sanskrit, is a traditional seated meditation pose that is widely used in yoga and meditation practices. The name is derived from the lotus flower, a symbol of purity and divine beauty in many cultures. The pose is meant to promote a state of serene stability and calm.
Each ornament is lovingly carved from rich jacaranda wood, known for its beautiful grain and durability. The artists’ craftsmanship is evident in the intricate details that bring this yogi giraffe to life. From the patches/spots to the serene expression, every feature is etched and stained with care.
Measures 4.5 inches (Height) x 2 inches (Length) x 2 inches (Width) and measures 7 inches when you include the hanging ribbon. This ornament is the perfect size to stand out on your Christmas tree without overwhelming other decorations. The attached string allows for easy hanging, whether it’s on your tree, in your home, office, or even a yoga studio. Add a dash of festive cheer wherever it’s displayed.
Each ornament is hand-carved so there may be slight and subtle variations in color, shape, and pattern. This is what makes it unique and a true piece of African art.
