The Stolovača (Serbian: Столовача) is a traditional three-legged wooden chair characteristic of Montenegro, western Serbia, Republika Srpska and Serbian culture.[1]

The Stolovača is low to the ground with a round-back that juts out to the front, to act as arm rests. This chair, which resembles a throne, is traditionally intended for the head of the household, special guests and generally only males.[2]

Today, this chair is often found in ethno-villages across Serbia and Montenegro, and in traditional restaurants and households.
