Rare Form of Stool (Possibly Lozi) Featuring Carved Mask or Face Details, Zambia

Rare Form of Stool Featuring Mask or Face Details. Possibly Lozi Culture, Zambia

The stool is carved from a very dense heavy wood. The seat is supported by two V-shaped supports each feature a very unusual detail of a carved face or mask.

At this point the stool would have been held and carried, as a result each of these decorations has developed a deep lusty patina. Decorating around the edging of the seat are two rows of fine circle and dot decorations.
