Hand carved, vintage African chair from the Baule tribe. The Baulé chair is from the Ivory Coast in Africa. The chairs of the Djimini and Baulé tribes have a typical design, low with a vertical back. Traditionally reserved for members of the Poro society, these chairs are offered by wives or female relatives to men after initiation. The austere rigidity of the chair's straight back was a sign of their new social standing and dignity.

Two chairs in storage. These chairs came to Sweden in 1960 by a Swedish missionary.

Dimensions: Various dimensions approx H50 cm, W44 L40 cm Seat height 30 cm
