Twin Papasan Chairs with Basket Display - Circle of Ease & Offering – Enkito e Oltau (Step of Gathering).

More than seating—this storefront is a woven invocation of comfort, rhythm, and artisan pride.

Introducing the Enkito e Oltau Circle of Ease & Offering: a relaxed outdoor ensemble featuring two green tufted papasan chairs with light rattan bases, placed on tiled ground in front of a glass window filled with woven baskets and containers. The chairs invite pause and presence, while the backdrop of handcrafted forms evokes abundance, layering, and ceremonial care. Designed for boutique interiors, gifting rituals, or hospitality corners, this collection transforms comfort into storytelling and texture into tradition.

Artisan Connection:

The papasan chairs are crafted by artisans in Nyeri, Kenya, using rattan and cotton upholstery shaped for breath and grounding. The baskets behind them are woven from sisal and baobab fiber using coiling and plaiting techniques, each form echoing Maasai shield symbolism and seasonal rhythm. The tiled surface and storefront setting reflect visibility, welcome, and cultural pride.
