Meet the presenter

Master blacksmith Albert Botha is a modern artist who has mastered the ancient craft of blacksmithing. For more than six years he has been producing outstanding works that showcase the beauty and versatility of metal. In contrast to most blacksmiths who concentrate on commercial series, Botha prefers to follow his own unique route by designing work pieces modeled on clients’ specific requirements.

Botha’s creations are not only functional objects, but are in fact works of art. His portfolio includes knives with sturdy cutting edges, hooks that can be used for more than their intended purpose, and chandeliers that create an atmosphere with antique shadows. Each piece is a unique masterpiece that reflects Botha’s artistic skills, creativity, but also the unique input of his customers. These objets d’art add cultural and historical significance to any living space. In this way, ordinary everyday materials are transformed in a creative way into art objects that will survive our time.
