Description
This traditional Ugandan wooden stool is hand-carved from a single block of hardwood and features a shallow concave seat supported by a short central column and a wide flared base. The surface shows a rich, well-used patina with age-related cracks and an older repair along the rim, reflecting long-term traditional use. Minimal in design yet full of character, it represents the classic functional style of East African stool carving—practical, balanced, and deeply rooted in everyday cultural life.
