You might want to look at a wooden chair that has usually 2 or 4 dowels keeping the legs together... they are wooden poles, can be sculpted or not, and were originally intended to hold things together by placing each end in a hole on something else.

wooden dowel or doweling, is a rounded piece of wood used to join things as in furniture making. it gives a neat joint. using glue in the holes or on the dowel helps keep it stable
