These stunning Ngwenya Glass Elephants are skilfully hand-crafted in the tiny African Kingdom of Eswatini by a small group of artisans deploying time-honoured technique and artistry.
Each piece is lovingly created from recycled glass collected from all over the Kingdom by the Eswatini people.
Truly exceptional pieces, these enchanting Glass Elephants make fabulous and original gifts.
As each of these Glass Elephants is handcrafted please be aware that your Elephant may not be identical to those shown in our pictures, these slight variations are a natural and inevitable feature of a handcrafted product and serve to enhance their beauty and authenticity.
Did you know? The African Elephant is the Worlds largest land mammal? These magnificent creatures have roamed the plains and forests of Africa for thousands of years.
I bought this elephant as a replacement for one I have had for years which unfortunately got broken. Although it’s trunk turns up instead of down, it is just as beautiful as my original one and I was so pleased to have found the exact same make, wonderful service and quick delivery, couldn’t be happier.
After searching for an glass elephant we originally saw in Africa we came across African Artisans on the web. We ordered and the exact elephant was not available. They (Steve) was back in touch within hours with photos of an alternative (trunk down) or offering a refund. It was all sorted and confirmation of dispatch the same night. Our beautiful elephant arrived safely just two days later. It has been a refreshing change for such personal service and the product exceeding our expectations. Thanks to all at African Artisans who have brightened our "lockdown", we wholeheartedly recommend them. Stay safe.

You would never guess these items are made from recycled materials, they are far better than many new items you can get. And they are the height of tasteful... absolute delights. Elegant, understated beauty.
I ordered one of these glass elephants last October for my daughter-in-law who collects elephants and was pleasantly surprised how lovely it was, nice and smooth and made from green glass rather than clear. I am now ordering the medium size for Christmas to match the large one I ordered for her birthday, and will finally order the small later next year to complete her set.
