Bring a touch of calm and character to your space with this 15cm Hippo Resting Ash Tray, designed to resemble a peaceful hippo partially submerged in water. Its rounded form and textured stone-like finish make it both a functional ash tray and a decorative art piece. Crafted with attention to detail, the tray features a smooth inner dish, subtle rim accents, and a sculpted hippo head emerging playfully from the centre. Whether used as an ash tray, trinket dish, or display piece, it adds a unique artistic presence to any room.

Our sculptures are hand‑carved by skilled stone artists from Zimbabwe, where the tradition of shaping stone into expressive forms has been passed down through generations. Each artist brings their own style, rhythm, and interpretation to the stone, transforming raw material into meaningful works of art. This piece reflects the dedication and craftsmanship found within Zimbabwe’s vibrant sculpting communities. Artists often work in small groups, sharing tools, techniques, and inspiration while shaping each sculpture entirely by hand. No two pieces are ever the same — each one carries the unique touch, vision, and story of its creator. By choosing Pelistone, you help support these talented artists and contribute to the preservation of Zimbabwe’s rich stone‑carving heritage.
