AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Ashanti seats—or rather the Ashanti thrones—are true works of art that were carved for the coronation of chiefs of the Ashanti or Asanté people in Ghana. Each Ashanti king (named Asantehene) had his own Ashanti stool, which was preserved and venerated long after his death.
