Yoruba King Beaded Chair
Yoruba King Beaded Chair
39” x 25” x 25”
Exquisite hand beaded formal chairs by the Yoruba Artisans of Nigeria.
Traditionally created for the Yoruba tribe kings and queens and embellished with thousands of seed glass beads applied to fabric covers which are then stitched or glued onto the chair frame - resulting in an exotic chair covered in elaborate beading. The designs used to have meanings denoting things like wealth, power, strength and wisdom; in addition to having spiritual significance.
Please note that many of our handmade items are one of a kind, perfectly imperfect, vintage and have indigenous decorative repair work which we believe adds to the intrinsic value and beauty of the items. No two items are exactly the same.
