One of such cool furniture pieces is a Papasan chair, also known as a dish chair, a moon chair, or a bowl chair, and if you still hesitate whether you need it or not, let’s find out what kind of chair it is and whether it’s worth buying or not.
What Is A Papasan Chair
The Papasan chair works like a baseball glove that makes you feel snug and secure. These chairs, originally Asian, became popular in America during World War II, and have been a trendy icon ever since. The design is simple: a round shaped seat, like a bowl, cushioned with a large plush pillow.
The frames of the Papasan chairs were traditionally constructed out of rattan but today they can be crafted out of sturdy organic materials like wicker or wood. As for the futon and pillows, the fabric types are totally up to you.
