Set de 4 fauteuils sculptés from 1950
SAFE PAYMENTS
This rare set of four dignitary armchairs originates from the Fon ethnic group in the historic Kingdom of Dahomey (modern-day Benin), circa 1950. Each armchair is monoxyl—expertly carved from a single block of solid mahogany with lion figures on the legs and armrests symbolizing strength. The backrests depict a serpent-bearer capturing a snake, reflecting regional myth and power. With a seat height of 38 cm and armrests at 60 cm, they offer both comfort and cultural richness. Exceptional craftsmanship with deep symbolic value.
