Description

wood, rest.

This stool is a work by Sikire Kambire from Gaoua, probably the most famous Lobi carver of the 1930s.

According to an informant (Kambou), Sikire began carving at the age of about 16, thus in about 1912. He was said to be very talented and was therefore soon carrying out work commissioned by colonial officials. As “chevalier” he was said to have also accompanied the latter on their tours through native villages. Due to his success, various students adopted his style, of which Lunkena Pale and Dihunthe Palenfo were the most successful (Meyer, 1981, pp. 127 f.).
