Product remarks

  • The unique item shown on the image is the exact item you will receive.
  • Among the flagship of objects in African art are the caryatid stools. The figures who adorn Chokwe stools are often called caryatids - channeling the elegant carvings of women in Greek architecture. The woman on this stool however - serves a very different purpose to the Greek. She represents a departed ancestor - who provides guidance and protection. Here - she holds her head in sorrow - worrying that her descendants are not honoring her as they should. Her position underneath the seat shows that she symbolically supports the person seated upon it.
