Papasan Chair & Woven Grounding - Circle of Rest & Ritual – Enkito e Nabo (Step of New Life).

More than a chair—this nest is a woven invocation of softness, breath, and ancestral pause.

Introducing the Enkito e Nabo Circle of Rest & Ritual: a handcrafted papasan chair with a circular rattan frame and a tufted white cushion, placed atop a woven rug and framed by a white paneled wall. Designed for newborn sanctuaries, reading corners, or ceremonial lounges, this piece transforms seating into sacred stillness.

Artisan Connection:

Crafted by cooperatives in Nyeri and Narok, Kenya, the chair’s frame is shaped from sustainably harvested rattan, echoing traditional cradles and communal seating. The cushion is hand-stitched from cotton and filled with natural fiber stuffing, tufted to evoke softness and breath. The woven rug beneath is loom-crafted from sisal and baobab fiber, grounding the space in rhythm and ritual.
