Great uncle of the Butterfly Stool? We were impressed with this handcarved wooden stool from Swahili Imports...

It's made of solid wood and has a handcarved fluted texture in the base. The form reminds us of Sori Yanagi's Butterfly Stool, pictured above. It sells for almost $600 at the MoMA Store. Swahili's stool stands 24" tall and sells for just under $300.

The top one oddly made me think of those old samurai (?) helmets...
