The hand shaped Buddha wooden chair is a trendy accent furniture. Interest is rising in Feng shui inspired décor and furniture and the open palmed Buddha accent chair is built as a motif of good feng shui. The hand is raised in the form of a blessing; it is believed that the fingertips are the source of energy flows which heal. The Palm shaped chair has a back rest made of the stretched upraised fingers and the palm makes for the seat. The chair is unique in that it provides an armrest too, formed from the meeting of the thumb and the forefinger. The seat is 20 x 15 and is very spacious and comfortable. A few colourful cushions can be added to make it cosy and fun. See our entire collection of hand-finished suarwood rustic Buddha hand chairs.
The palm shaped accent chair is found in different shapes of the hand, known as mudra. Here the raised hand with fingers pointing upwards is a mark of blessing. The thumb is turned somewhat inwards as a mark of meditative state.
The furniture is sculpted out of suar wood or South American Walnut, which comes from rain-tree. Suarwood is strong, durable, with a light yellow sapwood and rich honey-brown heartwood. The criss-cross nature of the grains bring about interesting designs and patterns on the wood. The beauty of the suar wood is that each criss-cross grain pattern is unique.
Oriental furniture has simple, flowing lines and seamless curves. Designs are minimalist and follow the natural curve of wood. This adds a Zen-like vibe to any space. The advantage of a Buddha chair is that it can go with any kind of eclectic décor. Zen décor uses natural elements like water, stones and greenery to add a serene but playful touch to the space.
The palm shaped wooden Buddha chair is perfect for curling up with a book. It is quite spacious.
