What
Lotus-inspired designs induce a dreamlike state, full of the enchantment and mystery of the East. Water and botanical motifs float along with a sense of serenity and exquisite purity.


Pretty in plum, tonal florets conjure a sense of Eastern mystery in the Safi pillow from Blissliving Home ($75).	Stylized lotus blossoms dress up Emissary's high-fired ceramic stool, which doubles as an ultra-chic end table ($298).


Crafted from intertwined nickelplate, Michael Aram's Lotus Blossom menorah takes inspiration from the mystical and serene symbolism associated with water ($220).	W. King Ambler's exclusive giclee print was taken from the original chromolithograph featured in The Grammer of Ornament by Owen Jones, ca. 1856 ($180 to $225).


Gold-leafed bowls shimmer by candlelight in Vagabond Vintage's re-creation of the exotic blooms ($18 to $40, not food safe).	Each delicate petal in Jamie Young's Flowering Lotus pendant is made from engraved, pressed metal sheets and finished in antique gold leaf ($800).

Temple Garland, part of the new Amy Butler for Chandra Collection, evokes an enchanted water garden in hand-tufted New Zealand wool ($775, 5×8).
