Editor's Note

This Makonde Tribe chair functions better as a piece of sculptural art than everyday seating. In a modern entryway or library, its rich dark patina provides a soul-stirring contrast against crisp white walls. Pair it with soft, woven textiles or a simple brass floor lamp to balance the heavy wood texture. To maintain the visual proportion, allow it plenty of breathing room rather than crowding it with other furniture. Periodically dust with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to preserve the intricate geometric carvings and hand-hewn finish.
