Small tripod stool Kamba hand-carved, elephant motif, Kenya, mid-20th century.

Small African stool hand-carved, attributed to the Kamba (Akamba) people of Kenya, dating from the early to mid-20th century. The stool is made of solid wood and features the characteristic three-legged construction found in traditional Kamba seating. The circular seat is adorned with beads forming a stylised elephant pattern, a decorative technique used by East African artisans to enhance otherwise simple wooden objects. Compact in size and sculptural in shape, this piece can serve as a small stool, a decorative object, or an example of African tribal craft collection. This refined stool complements many interior styles, including Vintage, Classic, Scandinavian, Modern, Bohemian, or Art Deco.
