Striking 19th Century Ashanti stool. 

This stool is a sacred symbol of the Ashanti nation believed to possess the sunsum (soul) of the Ashanti people. These stools were made for chiefs and important people and were considered important state regalia.

They were believed to contain the soul of the owner.

The seat is crescent-shaped, and the stool was carved from a single piece of wood, reflecting the skill and talent of the stool carvers.
