Wooden stool or wooden coffee table 45/45 cm white color.These beauties are known as Bamileke stools and come from Cameroon and are an iconic piece of furniture in Africa.They are also called African stools, King's stools, or Bird's Nests and were traditionally used by the Bamileke tribe for public ceremonies.Today they are also used for interior decoration and I sell them at both wholesale and retail prices.I hand cut them from a continuous piece of wood.To do this the timber would first be thrown into the river to soften it and then the ornate web pattern would be hand carved into the hardwood.Any break in the wood would mean the piece had been abandoned or this break is considered a break in the life cycle and therefore a bad omen.The intricate pattern you see in these represents the web of the earth spider, a symbol of divine wisdom.I make Bamileke stools in a variety of designs and sizes, which includes.Dia 40cm X 45cm.40cm X 50cm dia.Dia 40cm X 60cm.40cm X 70cm dia.40cm X 80cm dia.Note: The above sizes are approximate.The above stools are basically made in 3 colours; natural brown, black and white.In case you need any other colour, please let us know.Bamileke stools are a gorgeous addition to a space, lending that organic, earthy touch that warms up a sleek, modern space.They also work well in outdoor spaces, provided the appropriate lacquering.So versatile and so fabulous!.
