Superb LOBI or DAGARI monoxyl tripod stool from Burkina Faso. Each LOBI man who underwent an initiation had to own one of these stools. This example with its elegant and refined design, whose beautiful dark patina reveals its age, probably belonged to a dignitary! When the elders approached him, he would strike the ground with his stool as a sign of respect. These stools were carried on the left shoulder when traveling. Beautiful brown and shiny patina from use. Exceptional piece!
