The Padma Maison Armchair carries the essence of a lotus blooming within the home. In Indian tradition, the Padma is a throne of deities, a blossom of beauty that rises above all impurities. Here, that symbol finds a modern expression in the medallion backrest, echoing both lotus petals and European ornamentation. The French word Maison situates the chair in a cultivated home — a place where artistry, comfort, and refinement meet. Together, they tell the story of a seat that is not just utilitarian but also ceremonial. Placed in a living room, library, or veranda, the chair becomes a sanctuary of rest — a pause amidst life’s flow. Like a lotus unfolding in still waters, it offers quiet elegance, inviting the sitter into reflection, relaxation, and timeless poise. The Padma Maison Armchair is crafted with a solid wooden frame, featuring a medallion backrest woven in airy cane. Its lotus-inspired motif at the center serves as both an ornamental flourish and a symbolic reminder of beauty in stillness. The wide wooden arms provide support, while the gently curved legs ensure both durability and grace. Finished in natural polish or deep tones, it adapts easily to varied interiors — whether minimalist, traditional, or transitional. A piece that blends symbolism with practicality, the chair stands as a statement of both cultural heritage and modern comfort.
Each component reflects a story of devotion, culture, and skilled hands
The medallion back is both decorative and symbolic. The lotus (Padma) represents purity and awakening, while the medallion form recalls European classicism. Together, they merge Indian spirituality and French artistry.
The seat is where the body rests and the mind quiets. Drawing from āsana (posture/seat), it is both functional and meditative, offering the comfort of stillness within the refined space of a home (Maison).
The legs are sthira (steady), grounding the chair as roots ground a lotus. They balance elegance with strength, ensuring the chair stands firm while maintaining graceful proportions.
The interwoven cane (tantu) brings openness and airflow, keeping the design light and breathable. Like a lattice of sunlit threads, it softens the structure with natural beauty.
From sleek, modern designs that exude contemporary elegance to timeless classics that evoke warmth and nostalgia, our curated selection has something for every taste and lifestyle. Each piece is crafted with precision and care, ensuring both quality and durability.
