About The Item

Inspired by archaic geometrical shapes and symbols found in cultures around the world, ANCESTORS brings traditional ethnic art back to life. Contemporary wooden furniture are transformed into unique pieces of art where each pattern is carefully carved by our artisans. This creates timeless centerpieces of minimalistic silhouette with a unique and distinct character. The TABWA collection is the embodiment of Africa's rich cultural heritage, and blends together innovation, art and tradition. Named after the Tabwa culture from Central Africa, the inspiration comes from their fondness for linear geometric motifs. Among them, the most noticeable symbol is the triangle. It is interpreted as a new moon, symbolizing the rebirth and continuity of life and forms a central element to the TABWA range.
