The Chime Floor Chair

Inspired by the classical Chinese poetic ritual of sitting close to the earth to listen to the distant chime of temple bells (席地而坐听钟吟), the Chime Floor Chair invites you to slow down, lower your perspective, and settle into profound tranquility. Designed as an essential piece for tea room furniture setups and daily practice, moving away from high-backed seating reconnects you with the spatial scale of traditional spaces, turning every gathering into an act of mindfulness.

Hand-Finished Sculpted Comfort: Drawing inspiration from the fluid contours of traditional  round-backed armchairs in Ming-Dynasty (Quan Yi), the thick cushion features downward-sloping edges that are carefully hand-contoured. This subtle taper eliminates pressure against your legs whether sitting cross-legged or extended.

Ergonomic Back Support: Four offset wooden pillars provide structural balance while encouraging a poised posture. Organic upward-curving linework paired with a calibrated back height offers continuous lumbar support during long tea sessions and meditation rituals.

Harmonious Spatial Presence: Designed to pair effortlessly alongside low tea tables, this floor chair presents a quiet, orderly silhouette. Even when unoccupied, its balanced proportions bring a calm, dignified rhythm to your floor seating arrangements.
