A characteristic Karamajong combination neckrest/stool in fine condition, this work has a very lustrous patina. The cushion is carved in the form of two pinted ovals, formally complementing the pedestal support. The handsome graining of the loive wood is exploited for its decorative potential. The shPe of the object is exceptionally elegant.
