These two forms are shaped in beautiful complementing, angular and contrasting lines. Red Ivory is extremely rare and the crimson, almost cherry colour of the wood is seldom displayed so gracefully. Whichever way you turn the sculpture, either as flowing together or contrasting in the shape of the Kudu horn, the two pieces display in perfect harmony.
Gys Potgieter is the visionary and owner of Kuni, a master of his craft and doing what he loves – crafting wood by hand. He favours indigenous wooden slabs and his designs flow with the shape, grain and nature of the slab. For Gys, the perfectly crafted furniture piece is as functional as it is beautiful. It is not about the extent or number of items produced, but about the passion and pride of producing a single, unique, handcrafted work of art, a natural object of lasting beauty.
