The Papasan chair works like a baseball glove, making you feel comfortable and confident. These originally Asian chairs became popular in America during World War II and have been a trendy icon ever since. The design is simple: a round seat like a bowl, upholstered with a large plush cushion.

The bases of Papasan chairs were traditionally made from rattan, but today they can be made from sturdy organic materials such as wicker or wood. As for the futon and pillows, the fabric types are entirely up to you.

Types of Papasan Chairs

The standard Papasan chair is a model of the basic type. It has an upright frame and base covered with a fabric for upholstery. The upright frame is slightly tilted to allow for additional adjustment to your relaxing posture. The chair’s round bowl shape provides an informal comfort for those who curl up in the seat.

The Mamasan chair is a double papasan chair. It expands the circular shell design of a regular papasan chair into an oval, deep seat that can accommodate two people. The frame resembles a papasan chair and is combined with a longer cushion.

While the base papasan is perfectly circular, the swivel rocker is vertically upright with the same frame and cushion combination. The swivel attached to the base helps recline and rock the chair while you sit in it. It’s a chair for living!
