Wooden kafwokonolo chair, privilege of high-ranking men, Sen - Lot 78
Wooden kafwokonolo chair, privilege of high-ranking men, Senufo, Ivory Coast Dimensions: 66 x 36 x 46 cm. More a work of prestige than a simple everyday object, it attests to the power and social status of its owner. Among the Senufo, chairs and stools had a special status: as individual property, they followed their owners wherever they went, and were used for important events. The rest of the time, they were treasured along with other insignia of power. Appraised by Mr. Pierre Mollfulleda, Specialist in Oceanic and African Arts. A wooden Senufo Kafwokonolo chair, Côte d'Ivoire.
