KOTA are a tribe from northeastern region of Gabon and the republic of Congo. This arm chair draws its inspiration from the bracelet or anklet currency of the KOTA tribe. KOTA tribe are known for their copper and brass spiritual guardian figures. These currency forms are modelled as anklets usually worn around the ankle as a display of wealth, achievement and status by both men and women in the community. These anklet copper currencies were used for major but rear transactions, as well as exchanged during marriage ceremonies.
KOTAA armchair was created as a symbol of wealth and societal status.
