This uniquely handcrafted three-legged stool is more than furniture, it is a living expression of Pokot heritage, reimagined by artisan Pauline Loyala. Carved from local wood and finished with brass studs, it reflects the traditional stools used in ceremonies, where elders gathered to counsel, bless, or rest. Pauline adds a striking innovation: intricate beadwork wrapping each leg, incorporating the colors of the Kenyan flag to symbolize identity, pride, and unity. Dangling metal disks and coordinated bead strands enhance the design, celebrating women’s voices in cultural transformation. Functional yet symbolic, the stool embodies both tradition and contemporary artistic creativity.
