African art collection Amadeo Plaza Garcés. Among the Asante, Ahanti, an ethnic group from Ghana (formerly the "Gold Coast"), the five-pillar seats are called asesedwa (dwa). However, the shape of this version is similar to that of the adinkra gwa chief's stool used by the Omanhene, chief of the Adinkra region. Every head of the family had a stool, while women used a smaller version. Today, everyone uses them without distinction. Light patina, erosion and chips from use. Lit.: "Black African seats from the Barbier-Mueller Museum" ed. 5Continents
