This elegant sculpture sees two hands coming together in gratitude. The piece symbolizes connection, giving thanks, and acknowledgment of the Xhosa virtue of Ubuntu: "I am because we are." It is hand carved from a single piece of sustainably sourced Blue Gum wood, a form of eucalyptus found throughout southeast Africa. The species in invasive in South Africa, and systematic removal of the wood protects native forests, making the piece both beautiful and eco-friendly. They are polished to a raw, natural sheen, and the dense wood can also be displayed outdoors, weathering beautifully over time. Crafted to endure the test of time, these African sculptures mature with elegance, developing a captivating gray patina and acquiring unique, intricate cracks as the wood becomes increasingly resilient.
