The Pende people settled in the region near the Loango and Kasai Rivers. The Pende also make ritual or practical objects, such as chairs, stools, commanders’ stuff, flutes, horns, whistles, drums, weapon, cups, mortars, and divination instruments. These stools were personal to the owner. They were not transferred or traded, so intimately associated were they with the person for whom they were made. The size of the stool was often in relation to the importance of the owner. This stool is in good condition, though worn with age, and has evidence overall of old worn wear to the surfaces and it bares a dark glossy patina
