About the Item

An arresting wooden bed from Africa. Hand hewn with a sloped "pillow" at one end. The height and size would lend itself to be used as a unique coffee table. The Senufo bed is carved from a single block of hardwood. It is a wonderfully simple and elegant form with a raised pillow and four massive legs that taper downward. Senufo is a tribe from the Cote d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast).
