{"product_id":"wooden-yoga-lady-lotus-flower-cream-calm","title":"Wooden Yoga Lady - Lotus Flower - Cream - Calm","description":"\u003cp\u003eA figure sits cross-legged inside an open lotus, perfectly still, with a single word at its feet: Calm. It is a small wooden ornament that puts the idea of stillness on a shelf, quietly, without asking anything of you.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat you'll notice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe seated figure is cut from natural mango wood, and its warm grain shows plainly where the light catches it.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCream enamel frames it as a lotus, with pointed petals opening wide on either side and gaps between them that let the room show through.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe figure sits with legs crossed and hands resting out to the sides, shown from behind, so it reads as a calm silhouette rather than a portrait.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA plain wooden block holds it upright, with the word 'Calm' burnt into the front in dark lettering.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSmall dark feet under the base keep the wood off whatever it stands on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMango wood and cream enamel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo finishes do all the work here. The figure is left as raw, natural wood, so the grain and its tonal shifts stay visible. The lotus around it is glazed in soft cream enamel, which gives a smooth, slightly glossy edge against the matte timber. The base uses the same mango wood as the figure, so the whole piece reads as one object. As with any natural wood, the grain will vary a little from piece to piece.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe lotus in context\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lotus has long been a favourite motif in Hindu and Buddhist art, usually shown as a flower that opens above the water. Here it works as a frame: the petals become a gentle halo around the seated figure. Cream and natural wood are a restrained pairing, calm to look at and easy to live alongside.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhere it sits well\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is an upright, free-standing ornament made for flat surfaces. A bookshelf, windowsill, desk, bedside table or mantelpiece would all suit it, ideally somewhere with a little space around it so the open petals can be seen. It pairs naturally with other wood, linen and ceramic pieces. To care for it, wipe it with a dry or barely damp cloth and keep it away from standing water, as with any wooden piece.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA considered gift\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt suits someone who practises yoga, enjoys a quiet corner at home, or simply likes calm, natural objects. The single word on the base makes it a small, thoughtful gesture that needs no explanation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is it made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMango wood, with cream enamel on the lotus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it stand on its own?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes.
