Stools like this one were everyday objects — used for sitting, but also carrying social meaning as a mark of a household's standing, and sometimes linked to ancestral or protective associations within Lobi belief. Their sculptural, almost abstract forms, carved from a single tree trunk section, have made them highly regarded by collectors of African vernacular furniture and tribal design alike.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Alobalo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48217933054178,"sku":"ALB-FIG-047","price":174.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/2201\/3922\/files\/f9ed8ad7-67ce-4562-aeb7-5289fbbdff5b.jpg?v=1786658255","url":"https:\/\/www.alobalo.shop\/products\/lobi-original-stool-burkina-faso-african-tribal-art","provider":"Alobalo ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
