About this piece

A swarm of small seated figures, packed tight, supporting a throne.

This wooden stool was carved in Cameroon, Central Africa, in the 20th century. Figural stools are commonly associated with prestige and with the seating of important people in the region. Two stacked tiers of small crouching figures circle the column, packed closely together, with a plain top and a thick base. A crack runs across the seat top. The wood is mid-brown with darker patches in the recesses.

About 15 inches tall and 15 inches wide. A crowd of tiny figures, and not one of them is talking.
