Blow, notch, swing
Gestural sculpting takes nerve, because no blow can be taken back. Expressive sculpted pieces for sale between 2,000 and 5,000 euro often mean choosing a decisive form worked with a broad gesture.
Working this way sets directions rather than details. A long cut through the block, a knocked-off corner, a twisted curve: each intervention reads like punctuation. The eye follows the movements until it comes to rest at one spot.

A larger format
At this price level a piece can truly take space, for instance on a plinth in a hallway or in front of a staircase. Put it where you can walk around it, since from the side it usually says something different than from the front.
Marks of quality
A clean base, a secure footprint and a coherent surface show care. Have material, dimensions and weight confirmed in the listing. Depending on the piece, notes on sealing, wax or oil follow.
