This exquisite two-seater carved wooden settee is a rare statement piece, distinguished by its ornate crest rail and graceful scrolled arms. The elaborate carving on the back highlights a level of craftsmanship often seen in mid-20th-century artisan workshops across West and East Africa, where European-influenced furniture styles were reinterpreted through local carving traditions.

The dark hardwood frame—likely mahogany—has been fully restored, retaining its rich color while revealing the beauty of its hand-tooled details. The seat and back cushions have been newly upholstered in a striking red, blue, and black African wax print fabric, featuring radiating fan motifs that add a rhythmic, sculptural energy to the piece.

The result is a luxurious blend of tradition and modernity: a collectible settee that anchors living rooms, boutique lobbies, studios, or curated gallery spaces.
