Mumba the Elephant Doll

Each Silaiwali doll is thoughtfully handcrafted by skilled refugee women artisans, preserving generations of textile and embroidery traditions. Every stitch reflects patience, precision, and the individuality of the maker.

Rooted in storytelling and heritage, Silaiwali dolls celebrate diverse cultures through textile, dress, and form. Each piece carries a narrative—honouring identity, tradition, and the beauty of handmade expression.

Spot cleaning with cold water and mild soap is recommended. Only cold gentle handwash if needed.

After washing, avoid wringing it out to preserve the delicate textile quality and lay it flat or hang to air dry in a shaded area to prevent fading and protect the fabric from the harsh effects of direct sunlight. Only iron on low heat.

To preserve the integrity of the colors and material, opt for mild, gentle pH-neutral detergents that are suitable for delicate fabrics.
