1318 S. Hawthorne Road Winston-Salem, NC 27103 African Wooden ASHANTI ASANTE STOOL AFRICAN ASHANTI STOOL from GHANA Stools indicate status, power and succession of chiefs and kings. Carved from single blocks, Ashanti stools traditionally have crescent-shaped seats, flat bases and complex support structures, which exist in many designs with symbolic meaning. Most had specific names and designated users. Ashanti stools are spiritual as well as practical. They were understood to be the seat of the owner's soul and when not in use were leaned against a wall so that other souls passing by would not settle on it. This is a smaller Ashanti which is perfect for small areas or especially to use as display or pedestal.
