Tonga stools are among hundreds of stools still being used in rural African villages. These particular stools are named after the Tonga people who originated in South Africa and overtime migrated north. Traditionally, only the head of the household could own and take his place on a Tonga stool.

These small stools with their sharp geometric designs have been carved by hand from a solid piece of wood. The Tonga people carve these stools with portability in mind, as they would take their own seating when attending weddings, funerals and ceremonies in neighbouring villages. Stack them, display them.

These beds come in various sizes, all retaining traditional Senufo classic styling. The wood grains are beautiful and their sleek elegant styling have made them one of the most popular African forms used in interior design.

The Tuareg Posts 'Igem' are unique items that reflect the beauty of a fascinating tribe. Two matching posts are used outside the tent to mark or locate the entrance and enhance the doorway. The surface of the tent posts are decorated with fine engraving and have good patina from years of handling. The posts are forked at the top for attachment of the leather roof, they are weathered at the bottom from being pegged into the ground. Tents provide shade from the harsh desert sun. The Tuaregs are semi-nomadic, Islamic people speaking the Berber language. Today most Tuareg are semi-nomadic and remain in rural areas.
