Standing a proud 23 inches tall, these guys are ready to bring a little Silk Road magic straight into your living room.

Camels were treasured in China as symbols of wealth, endurance, and for their role in the Silk Road trade routes. For centuries, Bactrian camels were prized for their endurance, carrying goods across the deserts of Central Asia, becoming emblems of wealth and luxury.

Each camel is sculpted with wonderful expression: alert ears, proud humps, and all the personality you'd expect from the ultimate desert travelers. The flowing glaze in amber, green, and chestnut brown drips across their bodies like sunlight shifting through sand dunes.

Style them as guardians on either side of your fireplace, flank a console table for serious design drama, or let them stand solo as a statement piece. Wherever they go, they'll bring bold color, history, and conversation-starting character into your home!

Because honestly... how often do you get to say, "Oh, those? They're 19th-century Chinese camels created to symbolize the Silk Road back then. No big deal."

Each camel measures the same: 23 inches high, 17 inches long, and 7 inches deep. See less
