Vintage African Beaded Yoruba Chair, Multicolor, 2 Chairs Available
About the Item
Description
Originally hand-crafted for the Nigerian Yoruba tribe kings and queens, each chair takes approximately 3 months to make. Thousands of tiny glass beads are intricately applied to canvas fabric in beautiful shapes and designs. The fabric is then attached and stitched to the chair frame. A painstaking process resulting in an elaborate, one-of-a-kind work of art. We love these Yoruba chairs. They are worldly folk art that can dress up a corner of the room. Plus, the chairs are comfortable!
Price is for one chair. Pair available.
Please note that as these chairs are handmade, they are vintage and show slight imperfections.
