Not because of monetary value but due to the age and character that it shows. It’s obviously handmade/farm made with an animal hide seat. Iam thinking 120-150 years old (not sure how I came to that conclusion :)) Our furniture experts will obviously know much better than me. It’s 24x22cm and stands 26cm tall. Thanks for any comments

    Really hard to say how old something like this is. I do think antique or nearly so. I don't see 150 years of age on this.

    Thanks. I understand is difficult to say for sure. It can also be a Chokwe stool but it looks like those are normally decorated. Which would also be very cool. Like this one:
