About the Item

Soma Tall Sandstone Planter by Indigenus Designed by Laurie Wiid van Heerden Dimensions: Ø 79,2 x H 130 cm. Materials: Stone. Weight: 120 kg. Available in natural/oiled wood or stone. Different colors and sizes are available. Please contact us. Soma is the Greek word for “body” and Laurie Wiid van Heerden’s design of the Soma is inspired by the body of a tree. The trunk-like shape carries leaves towards the sky raising them upwards and above other plants. The Soma planters, some of which are substantial in size, do the same and lift beautiful plants via a curvaceous tree trunk likeness which could include timber as part of the tree's body. Indigenus, founded in 2014, is the brainchild of Cape Town local, Peter van der Post. At the beginning of his career, whilst working in roto-moulding, Peter noticed a lack of high design planters in the market and the vision to produce the most beautiful, original, and desirable planters began to grow. Over the past 8 years, the Indigenus team has collaborated with South Africa’s top designers to create planters that are art pieces in their own right. 2022 has seen exciting collaborations further afield with internationally renowned designers and collaborators. In line with our sustainability and quality luxury objectives, we are constantly striving to make planters for life and not just for a few seasons. It has taken years of refinement, many valuable lessons learned and, ultimately, setting up our world-class factory for in-house manufacturing to be able to ensure that the planters are of the highest quality. All materials are sustainably sourced and the planters are made by hand. It is this craftsmanship that puts Indigenus in a league of its own. Each range of planters is unique and illustrates the impact that beautiful sculptural planters have on architecture and landscapes. The planters' close connection to the earth is expressed through a stable and grounded design, made with beautiful natural materials and evoking an underlying story of our relationship with the natural world. Indigenus is focused on collaboration with the world’s top designers and artists. We are committed to constant refinement and a willingness to be courageous, curious, and experimental with natural materials and new designs. We have built solid distributor networks and relationships that we are committed to maintaining and growing globally. We are proud of our roots as an African luxury brand with a global footprint.

Bhaca Tall Sandstone Planter by Indigenus
Located in Geneve, CH
Bhaca Tall Sandstone Planter by Indigenus Designed by Andile Dyalvane Dimensions: Ø 74,35 x H 113,8 cm. Materials: Stone. Weight: 85 kg. Different colors and sizes are available. Please contact us. The Bhaca is a completely personal and original range of stone planters that reflect ceramicist Andile Dyalvane’s connection to his Xhosa roots while celebrating his mastery of an elemental material of choice – clay. Bhaca - meaning scarification - is a traditional Xhosa method of finely cutting the skin (usually on the cheeks) to mark initiation, clan identification, or healing. Andile desires to preserve and share his cultural roots of this ancient tradition by cutting into clay and pushing open the cuts where they intersect as if to open the flesh. The Bhaca has been electronically scanned and scaled from smaller clay vessels...
