Hand-Painted Khoisan Story Console Table by Only Mpofu
This console table brings more than function into your home — it brings a story of movement, memory, connection to the land and original African artistry.
Hand-painted by the famous artist Only Mpofu, this console table is not just a furniture piece, but a signed artwork. His signature, ONLY, is present on the piece, confirming the authenticity of the work and making it even more special for collectors, art lovers and unique interior spaces.
At the centre of the artwork is a Khoisan-inspired story, told through human silhouettes, animal figures, movement and symbolic details. The figures appear in motion, as if following a journey across the landscape — hunting, gathering, dancing and living in rhythm with nature.
The animals, human silhouettes and earthy tones create a feeling of Africa’s open spaces, where every mark has meaning and every scene feels alive. The warm wood finish, red and black tribal borders and central sun detail bring energy, grounding and character into the piece.
Placed in a home, this console becomes more than a hallway or entrance table — it becomes a story at the door, welcoming guests with culture, warmth and identity.
In a lodge or guesthouse, it brings a sense of place and African soul, helping guests feel connected to the landscape and the experience around them.
In a restaurant, boutique hotel or reception area, it becomes a memorable feature piece — something guests notice, photograph and remember.
Every time you look at it, it feels like a reminder of heritage, movement, nature and the beauty of African storytelling. It is perfect for someone who wants their space to feel personal, warm and unique — not filled with ordinary furniture, but with pieces that carry meaning.
Each detail is painted by hand, making this console table truly one-of-a-kind. No two Artessy pieces are ever exactly the same.
