French collection of African tribal art Among the elements of traditional African furniture , the seats played a role intended to enhance the prestige of those who possess them. Often intended for dignitaries, kings, chiefs and nobles, these luxurious seats are decorated with figurative motifs related to the history and myths of the clan. This stool takes up the general characteristics of the royal Kataklé stools of King Béhanzin (1845-1906), King of Abomey. The ornamentation composed of varied motifs in slight relief forms animal scenes, everyday life and others borrowed from nature. Satin brown patina, slightly abraded. Native restoration using a metal clip.
