Hand-Carved Stool from Cameroon 1950s
This original Bamileke stool from the mid-20th century is a unique handmade piece carved from a single block of wood. This extraordinary piece of furniture is not only functional, but also an impressive work of art that reflects the cultural significance of the spider motif from Cameroon. In African tradition, the ground spider, which lives underground, symbolises close contact with the ancestors. This pattern, depicted in the base of the stool, gives it a deeper meaning and makes it a unique talking point in any room.
