West African Ashanti Stool in Carved Hardwood, 20th Century
Located in Odense, DK
This sculptural stool is carved from a single block of solid wood, showcasing a distinctive, monolithic form. The wide, curved seat rests on a central arched support flanked by two end blocks — creating a grounded, rhythmic silhouette with both weight and openness.
Its proportions are low and compact, yet the piece has presence: the hand-carved surfaces bear soft irregularities, and the warm natural patina reveals years of use and craftsmanship. The seat is subtly concave, shaped for comfort and gesture, while the base structure adds a bold architectural quality.
It can be used as a stool, a side table, or a display pedestal — equally suited for a quiet reading corner, beside a sculptural armchair, or as a standalone object in a curated space.
