Afrito Stool
-
Description
Shaped like a traditional drum, the Afrito Stool possesses a rhythmic beauty with its succinct proportions and textural rope-wrapped look all around. It’s meant to serve as a playful and versatile perch that can be easily pulled into various settings—whether as a singular piece, a pair or a grouping in multiple colors. Part of designer Christian Astuguevieille’s Collection Afrique, inspired by Africa’s vibrant culture and history, the piece originates from furniture used for a ritual ceremony in a Congolese tribe.

Glue and nails hold the rope/cord in place.

Care & Assembly
Product Care
Rope and Cotton Cord
- Air out natural hemp rope as soon as possible once received to diffuse odor which can be strong especially on larger pieces. Painted cotton cord will not have odor since cord is made of cotton, not hemp.
- Materials should only be cleaned gently by brushing with a soft brush, duster, or vacuum nozzle.
- Do not clean with any liquids other than water on a slightly moistened cloth when needed.
- Do not let water or any other liquids sit on pieces for an extended period, or they will stain the materials and cause adhesive to loosen and the rope/cord to unravel.
- In the case of minor wear or unraveling, a local furniture repair person can fix.
- In the case of major wear, neglect, or unraveling, pieces will need to go back to the workroom in France to be re-roped/re-corded.
