Our Top Ten Picks for African Chairs, Ottomans and Pillows

African chairs, ottomans, and pillows are a welcome addition to any space, no matter how basic or extravagant they are.

Here are ten African-inspired patterns that will add a stylish touch to your house, place of business, or hotel room.

They work well outdoors, where they naturally become a topic of conversation while bringing elements of African culture into your everyday life.

1. African Chair; Malawi Cane Chair

The superior craftsmanship is evident in this Malawi cane chair with bamboo armrests.

It is a perfect addition to a contemporary coastal-style home, and it would look amazing both indoors and out with some shade. Made by hand from a natural tree frame, organic cane, and bamboo with a stunning weave in contrast to the base.

Use it indoors and under cover outdoors. (Size: 26″ x 27″ x 36″)

2. Moroccan Ottoman Pouf

The Myrugy Pouf is constructed from superior tissue material. It offers great seating for both adults and children. It is perfect for both large and small interiors, and it can also be used as a very comfortable footrest.

3, Bogolan Armchair

This armchair is made of fine wood, brass, and cotton fabric. Because of its exquisite bogolan covering, a traditional Malian fabric, this African armchair will easily fit into your home, office, or space. The armchair is perfect for people who like to unwind and use it for activities like reading and writing.

4. Yoni Steam Seat with African Adinkra Symbols

A hand-burned ancient Adinkra symbol, ASASE YE DURU, which means “Divine loving care”, is affixed to a natural, sustainably harvested pine wood yoni steaming seat. It is “13” tall and 18″ wide, making it low enough to support a supported squat position that opens the pelvic portals and high enough to bear your weight..

5. Moroccan Square Pouf Ottoman

The fabric for this cactus silk ottoman was woven with 50% extra yarn to achieve a more lustrous, textured finish. Additionally, it is repeatedly washed to give it a lovely, aged appearance with light tones.

6. Handmade Carved Traditional African Chairs

This antique chair is made by hand in the traditional Cameroon style and embellished with cowrie and old African coins. The seating surface is 33 cm at its highest point and slopes down to 20 cm at a wide angle to the back rest, creating a very low but incredibly comfortable seating position.

7. Original African Fabric for Chairs and Pillows

8. African Throw and Pillow Set

Simple but distinctive, this throw and pillow set made entirely of cotton will not only keep you warm and cozy but also give your home a sense of history and tradition. This throw’s neutral colors make it ideal for use in every room of the house. The throw is cozy for both indoor and outdoor use, and two matching pillow sets are included.

9. Moroccan Sabra Cushion

These gorgeous handwoven Sabra pillows are handwoven in Morocco from agave silk and feature gorgeous hues and textures.

In Morocco, agave plants grow to enormous sizes. These succulent plants are then peeled, and the process results in threads which are colored with natural dyes.

Each pillow is slightly unique because these Moroccan kilim pillows are handwoven on antique weaving looms. (This makes each one unique and special.)

10. Beaded African Stool

Although it was originally used as a chair, this vintage handmade African Kamba/Maasai worrior stool from Kenya can also be used as a coffee table or side table.

The stool’s top is inlaid with glass beads in the shape of stars and is constructed from dark wood.

It is a one-of-a-kind work of art to incorporate into your ethnic home décor.
