Description
A piece of history, this antique Bamileke stool was originally used as a ceremonial seat to signify the status and power of tribal chiefs and kings. Hand-carved from a single wood log with an oxidized finish and traces of original paint, this stool showcases the rich cultural heritage of Cameroon. The semi-abstract carved spider design and rounded top add to the visual appeal of this antique stool. Despite signs of age and wear, it remains a functional and decorative piece that can be used as extra seating or a small side table. This Bamileke stool is a work of art that brings a touch of African culture into your home.
