Description

This chair is a stunning blend of contemporary design and traditional African craftsmanship, drawing inspiration from the intricate elegance of the Patewo hairstyle. With its bold lines, dynamic forms, and rich textures, it transcends functionality to become a captivating work of art.

The frame, crafted from gracefully curved steel, mirrors the fluidity and rhythm of the Patewo hairstyle, evoking a sense of movement and vitality. Its composition suggests a delicate balance, as if the elements are dancing in harmony, embodying the rhythm and energy of life itself.

Through its evocative design and symbolic depth, the chair invites reflection on the beauty of cultural heritage, the power of self-expression, and the enduring significance of honoring traditions in a modern context.

Each curve is carefully sculpted to evoke the graceful contours of the hairstyle while also providing ergonomic support and comfort for the seated individual. Handmade in Senegal, limited edition.
