Indonesian Tobacco Cutting Stool Tool Kudus Java Polychrome Carved Teak Wood Old Indonesian Tobacco Cutting bench. Very rare & hard to find item. Reminiscent of a cobblers bench. Whimsically carved from teak wood and colorfully painted. This unique folk art tool from Kudus Java would make a great addition to your tobacco collection or also collection of Indonesian art. Used to chop tobacco in preparation for the making of "Kretek" or Clove Cigarettes. This would be interesting as a small side table. I have included a photo so you can see how this bench was used. approx. size:Overall 28" long x 16" at the widest point x 25" tallseat 11" x 7.5" table 12.5" x 7" Since 1988 we have ethically sourced and hand picked our products directly from the artisans and craftspeople on the back roads, family compounds and markets of Bali and other Indonesian islands.
