Vintage Tonga Stool

Our Vintage Tonga Stools have been hand-carved by the Tonga people of Zimbabwe using indigenous wood. The maker creates unique and personal designs each time, so each one is truly unique. As the Tonga stool is used as a portable seat which is carried to neighbouring communities for ceremonies and gatherings they often vary in size, with the larger, heavier stools harder to come by. The Tonga Stool is not only a beautiful piece of furniture, but it also has a rich history and cultural significance.

This Tonga stool has developed a beautiful patina through years of use, making this special piece a truly unique addition to your home. Whether styled as a low stool, side table or decorative sculpture, you’ll be sure to enjoy its beauty for years to come.

Care Instructions:

Woods will expand and shrink with changes in temperature and humidity. Take care not to place your furniture next to radiators or anywhere subject to excessive changes in temperature or moisture.

To clean, wipe with a damp cloth before buffing with a dry cloth. In the event of more stubborn marks, a solution of mild detergent should be used on the cloth. Silicone based polishes should not be used on the wood as they will build up and leave a sticky residue on the surface.
