Wooden Masaai Warrior

Wooden Masaai Warrior
A life size Masaai Warrior was made with Tambooti wood with hair, clothes and jewellery. Named Philimon by his owners, he was shot by armed robbers during an aborted house burglary. Two other wooden sculptures of men can be seen at the Mbombela civic centre in Nelsruit. Ebony & Ivory were commissioned to celebrate our Rainbow Nation

Ostrich life size.
The larges bird that cannot fly. The tail section was made with a knot of driftwood that formed an unusual shape due to a parasite that caused the defect in the living tree. This sculpture went to a private lodge in Nelspruit.
