Wooden figurine – Baby Hippopotamus
The PolePole Wooden Hippopotamus Figurine
The PolePole wooden hippopotamus figurine is hand-carved and hand-painted in Bali, based on the design by the Japanese brand T-Lab. In Swahili, "pole pole" means slowly, little by little: a whole philosophy of woodworking. This wooden hippopotamus, the child version of the Oyako series, charms with its rounded shapes.
Cut, carved, finely sanded, and then hand-painted in Bali, each piece is slightly different and completely unique.
- Handmade in Bali, Balinese artisanal craftsmanship
- Paint made from natural, plant-based ingredients
- Albizia Falcata wood sourced from eco-responsible forests
- Oyako series, child version full of curves
- Each wooden hippopotamus figurine is unique
- Decorative object, not suitable for young children
