OUR PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN FEATURED IN
ANTIQUE AFRICAN STOOLS AND BENCHES
SENUFO STOOL
Hand-carved from solid hardwood, the Senufo Stool showcases the craftsmanship of the Ivory Coast's Senufo people. Its timeless design makes it a functional seat or unique accent piece.
LOBI STOOL
Crafted by the Lobi tribe of Burkina Faso, the Lobi Stool features a rustic, minimalist design. Its sturdy build and natural charm suit any space with authentic character.
SENUFO BENCH
This hand-carved Senufo Bench blends traditional African artistry with modern functionality. Its elongated shape and smooth finish make it a standout decor piece.
KUBA CLOTH PILLOWS
Made from Raffia, the Kuba cloth/textile originates from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and is believed to be one of the hardest and time consuming pieces of textile to make. Home to the Kuba/Bakuba people, this tribe is well known in Africa for creating some of the most beautiful and intricate handmade fabrics from Raffia Vinifera or Bamboo palm.
The Kuba textile is all handmade and involves the participation of family members within a tribe. Each cloth requires fibers from the Raphia Vinifera to be soaked, beaten and stitched together by hand. A process that is time consuming and usually involves both men and women.
