This authentic Luba caryatid stool is a profound emblem of leadership and cultural heritage from the Luba people of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Hand-carved from dense hardwood, this ceremonial stool features a classic circular, slightly concave seat supported by a beautifully sculpted human figure. The figure, likely female and depicted in a kneeling or crouching posture with raised arms, serves not only as a structural element but also as a powerful symbol of the ancestral lineage and the vital role of women as guardians of knowledge and tradition in Luba society. The stool exhibits a rich, dark patina, indicative of its age and traditional use as a seat of power for chiefs and kings. This rare and significant piece is a testament to the Luba's sophisticated artistic traditions and their deep spiritual beliefs.
