Product Description
The Sossuvlei drinks unit is inspired by the cracked mud plates found on the dry riverbed of Sossusvlei, Namibia.
“I get inspired by the endless textures and patterns that nature brings us.” says Abrie. Each mud piece is made of Solid oak and is separately hand turned on a wood lath before it gets a hand carved pattern on. We used Oil Plus 2C colour Dunes, which gave a very natural look to the oak. This limited-edition drinks unit is wrapped with bronze that rest in the shadow of the mud plates. The door uniquely hinge on the back of the unit to form pockets that host wine glasses and bottles.
