Originally handcrafted for the kings and queens of the Nigerian Yoruba Tribe , each chair takes approximately 3 months to make. Thousands of tiny glass beads are intricately applied on canvas fabric in beautiful shapes and designs. The fabric is then attached and sewn to the frame of the chair. A meticulous process that results in an elaborate and unique work of art.

Its floral designs and symbols denote wealth, power, strength and wisdom. It is more than a striking piece of furniture, it is a work of art.

This model has its partner, both thrones, that of the King and that of the Queen.

*All products are made by hand so there may be some variation in shape and size.
