The Papasan chair is an icon of 1970’s style and we’re all for it! Our renewed love of cane furnishings knows no bounds and this must be the ultimate piece of 70’s style to enjoy a renaissance.
"A lovely nest for your little ones during story time, style it up with a throw to add a pop of colour, or leave it just as is - I love it simply by itself!"
Tilly Roberts
With a luxuriously over-padded cushion nestled into an over-sized circular dish, the large bamboo frame tops a sturdy round base. The perfect statement chair for an outdoor room, the Papasan is lightweight and versatile and can be angled up, down and all around to maximise sun- and snuggle potential.
Reclaiming a pre-loved Papasan may require a new or recovered cushion, depending on how much action it’s seen. How you style it is up to you – either go full bohemian and layer it in throws and textured cushions, or keep it simple.
HB stylist Tilly Roberts really loves it’s potential as a cozy addition to the family home. “It’s the perfect place to cuddle up with a cup of tea and a good book – or a loved one,” she says. It certainly makes for an instant cushioned corner wherever it’s placed.
Beware though, it's the ideal place for a furry friend to curl up in!
