- Pair Mid-Century Hand Carved Acacia Wood Hand Stool/child chairLocated in Fort Washington, MDThese hand-carved stools/chairs are more than just seating; they are a form of functional art. The craftsmanship required to sculpt the complex shapes of the human hand into furniture speaks to a deep understanding of both form and function by the artisan.

The base of each stool/chair features carved designs, adding a touch of traditional Filipino...Category
