Oromo Cupped Stool

Hand-carved from a single, solid block of wood, this Ethiopian stool retains a unique personality as a modern sculpture, seat, or table. The irregular strokes are telltale signs of this traditional woodcarving practice. Made of wood selected from the center of the tree, the seat displays wonderful ringed patterns. The cupped disc combines with the curved legs to add a sense of movement and lightness to counterbalance the solid, rich wood of this soulful object.
