Furniture has different functions in the home, but when not in use, that same piece loses its function. Albert Potgieter runs a furniture art designing company, creating pieces that combines the function of furniture and the beauty of art. These distinctive pieces are frequently made of wood, inspired by Art Deco styles in the Netherlands during the 21st Century and Contemporary. The Urithi – meaning Heritage. This Dining Chair was designed to capture the heritage of Albert Potgieter within a chair. Bringing together design, nature and his African roots. Inspired by the ripples on water that gets created by the wind blowing over it, he carved the back of the chair in remembrance of his Grandmother doing wood carving when he was a young boy. Available in all standard finishes with custom materials and sizing available upon request.
