About Doris
Doris the Elephant, named after our craftsman’s grandmother, is a special piece for us. Doris Coffman (b. 1930, d. 2007) didn’t live the easiest of lives. At a young age she lost most of her sight and was considered legally blind. As she progressed through life, she lost most of her hearing, suffered from diabetes, and survived cancer. Despite the hardships, she found Joy. Her first love was her husband, Jim, and they shared a bond that has likely yet to be rivaled - it was an embodiment of the word “love” itself. Her second love was her collection of elephant figurines. For whatever reason, she loved elephants and her home was filled with hundreds of elephant statues, toys, photos, tables, and various tchotchkes.
This sculptural elephant has been created in her memory.

Conceptualized and designed to honor our craftsman’s late grandmother, Doris, the smooth, simple shape of these elephants brings sophistication to what is sometimes viewed as a whimsical animal. These gentle giants are all style and class, though.
The wooden elephants are a great gift option for an expecting family, but they're also wonderful as decor in any room of the house. Crafted of walnut and Baltic birch, they’re smooth and rich in color thanks to an oil and wax finish.
Available in three sizes - Small, Medium, and Large.

(01) Baltic Birch with Walnut
Made using a 13-layer solid wood Baltic birch with a walnut face. Baltic birch is a sustainable product and will be stable as the seasons change, unlike other solid wood furniture pieces.We have made it our signature look to expose the layers of Baltic birch. Not only does this give a nod to the designers of the mid-century era, it makes every piece a work of art, and a unique, one-of-a-kind, creation.
(02) Finish
Pure Tung Oil, Boiled Linseed Oil, Beeswax, Carnauba Wax. The end result is a durable, water-resistant matte finish that feels like a silky-smooth piece of wood. -
(01) How do I care for this product?
Details can be found on our FAQ page. That said, in general, treat the piece with kindness. A damp cloth is all you need to clean it (definitely no harsh chemicals), and the piece can be refreshed with a bit of furniture wax when needed.
(02) Are both sides finished in walnut or do they have to face to the left?
These wooden elephants are totally reversible. Feel free to have them trekking North, South, East or West, or huddled in a circle if that’s what brings you joy!
