Wild Keepsake — Carved Padauk Trinket Dish, Your Totem Animal | 10 × 10 cm · Wouley
€24.00
Tax included
A solid padauk dish carved in the likeness of an African totem animal — yours. The keepsake where the things that matter come to rest: a ring at night, a watch at dawn, a few paperclips on a fine desk. Choose the animal you see yourself in. 10 × 10 cm.
It's the small objects that make the finest rituals.
Every evening, the same gesture: you slip off your watch and set it down. You ease off a ring. You empty your pockets of those precious nothings. The question is never where — but in what. And what if it were a dish carved in your own image?
For the Wild Keepsake lets you choose your spirit animal. The lion and its quiet royalty. The leopard, elegance and cunning. The rhino, peaceful strength. The bull, sheer resolve. The gorilla, power that protects. Each carries a character — yours. You don't choose a dish: you choose the totem you recognise yourself in.
Cut from solid padauk, its surface bears the animal carved in relief, with a precision that catches the light and invites the hand. And no ordinary wood: padauk, the "red wood" held sacred across Central Africa, whose warm tones have accompanied life's great moments for generations. A tiny object, yet heavy with story.
On a desk, it becomes the open keepsake where paperclips, coins and small items turn into a detail of style — the touch that sets a desk apart. On a dressing table, it plays the ring dish, quiet guardian of your evening treasures. On a bedside table, it holds the watch you set down and pick up again — the first and last gesture of the day.
Pocket-sized, yet with the presence of a totem. And, at this price, the loveliest of small gifts — for yourself, or for someone with taste.
A Wouley signature — where even the smallest objects have a soul.

Care
Padauk asks for next to nothing. A soft cloth brings back its glow. Just keep it away from standing water and long hours in direct sun. And if the mood takes you, a touch of wood oil once a year revives its red tones — but your keepsake will do just fine on its own.
