Kenyan artisans hand carve meerkats from soft soapstone and then hand dye each piece in neutral shades of white, brown, and gray. They are sculpted in their famed upright pose with the cutest curious expression. Because this is a handcrafted item, each may vary slightly.
The meerkat was included as one of the artisan miniatures in the August 2024 monthly sandtray subscription box themed "For the Love of Animals". Sign up today to get your box.
