Papasan Chairs

Funky, retro, and comfortable are the three key words that describe papasan chairs.  They were originally designed in South East Asia and have since made their way around the world due to their unique and comfortable shape and design. 

The Structure Of A Papasan Chair

There are three main parts of a papasan chair: frame, seat, and cushion.  These chairs require no assembly as they are stacked on top of each other.  The frame of the chair is the bottom portion and should be set in a location where the chair will be placed.  Then the round shaped basket seat is placed on the chair frame.  Finally the cushion is thrown on top.  They are that easy and simple to set up!

Materials Of A Papasan Chair

The frame and seat of a papasan chair are typically made of rattan.  However, these days you can get them in plastic or even metal.  The rattan is a natural element that is light weight and resembles wood.  The chair cushion can also vary in material.  Some use a polycotton fill while other companies use natural elements.  In either case, you'll want to make sure the cushion is comfortable. 

Why Get A Papasan Chair

Papasan chairs didn't become popular just based on their name.  They are super comfortable, have a fun design, inexpensive, not to mention, easily accessible.  You can probably find one at your local Pier 1 Imports today. 

Consider a papasan chair to make your living area more stylish and comfortable.
