A hand-carved Nupe stool from Nigeria, worked from a single piece of wood with intricate incised patterns. The Nupe live along the banks of the Niger River, and stools like this ar e traditionally used as prestige objects on market days and at important gatherings. Each is carved from a single, seamless block of indigenous hardwood — the geometric legs and incised surface patterns reflect a design language unique to the Nupe. Weathered by time and restored with care, this piece keeps its "perfect imperfections": a patina that speaks to years of communal use. A one-of-a-kind piece of functional art. Size: 39cm L × 37cm W × 35cm H Show more
