Here, the unwanted wood gets a considerably longer second life. Hang the Bokkie indoors or let it weather outside, where the solid wood will gradually crack, shift, and develop a silvery gray patina.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHand-carved antelope wall sculpture\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSolid Blue Gum eucalyptus\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCarved from a single piece of wood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eApprox. 13\" H × 3–4\" W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSuitable for indoor + outdoor display\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNaturally develops cracks + variation with age\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGradually weathers to gray when displayed outdoors\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEach piece is individually carved + will vary\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandmade in South Africa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Brand: Unearthed Home Decor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnearthed has found a useful answer to the question of what to do with a tree nobody particularly wants growing there. Based in Cape Town, South Africa, Unearthed creates furniture and sculptural objects from natural materials, including Blue Gum eucalyptus. Considered invasive in South Africa, the wood is removed to help protect indigenous vegetation and then put into the hands of local craftspeople, who carve and shape it into objects designed to stick around considerably longer than the problem that produced them. The wood is allowed to behave like wood, too. It cracks, shifts, weathers, and develops character over time, making every piece increasingly its own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Powered by People","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ Single","offer_id":53639012745579,"sku":"DE-BHS-Bk","price":136.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Natural Wood \/ Single","offer_id":53639012778347,"sku":"DE-BHS-Nc","price":136.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Textured White \/ Single","offer_id":53639012811115,"sku":"DE-BHS-Wh","price":136.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/6534\/5899\/files\/be7eecf8d67b46e281d8b1a3e6836e71.jpg?v=1785538596","url":"https:\/\/www.goodbountythestore.com\/products\/african-antelope-wood-bokkie-head-wall-sculpture","provider":"Good Bounty the Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
