xSafari-inspired artisan napkin rings
Introduce a story-telling element to your table with this six-piece set of mahogany napkin rings. Each ring is carved by Kenyan artisans using simple hand tools and then hand-painted to bring six distinct savannah characters to life: a lion, cheetah, elephant, rhinoceros, giraffe, and zebra.
Crafted from warm African mahogany, these rings offer a tactile, natural warmth that pairs well with a variety of dinnerware and textiles. On average, the rings measure about 3.5 inches wide (including the head) and 2.5 inches tall, a size that sits comfortably at the edge of a napkin without overpowering the place setting. Because the pieces are handmade, expect tiny variances in size and design that contribute to their individual charm.
