Throne ottoman, 'White Elephant'
Magnificently carved from sese wood, a proud bull (male) elephant bears the weight of an ottoman. Eddison Agbeko carves a traditional Ashanti throne for the contemporary d�cor. "The elephant is the strongest animal in the forest," Agbeko says. Thus he carries the king himself. The elegant ottoman receives an antique finish with white clay.
