This delicately hand carved wooden Ashanti King’s stool is approximately 11 inches tall, and 16 inches wide and ONE OF A KIND! It is made of wood, and covered with hand hammered brass fittings, as well as hand stitched beadwork.
An African carved wooden stool, made by hand from carving to adornments by the Ashanti people, Ghana,
From 20th Century and shows wear but I love when the beautiful colors come through aged wood!!
African Ashanti Golden stool is wooden and sits low to the ground. Very comfortable and sturdy. This tribal wooden stool is a very collectible African furniture art piece. A stool such as this was usually used as a prayer stool or served as an ancestral shrine for ceremonies relating to their ancestors. They were made with symbols of unity, kinship, mutual solidarity and support. They provide a sense of belongingness, sacred obligations, rights, loyalty and obedience.
This is definitely a ONE OF A KIND conversation piece!
