Can you take the chair with you wherever you go?
The history of the chair is the last part
“I was sitting in an armchair on the porch. Kesavadev came in following opening the gate. He got angry seeing my sitting and came near and asked me to get up. Then he pulled out the two logs that bound the canvas of the armchair and threw them once morest the wall. Krishnan Nair will make you sick even lying in an armchair. Surgery will be required in the middle. It is better to leave it today itself” – M Krishnan Nair wrote in Sahitya Week.
It has been heard that prolonged sitting in an armchair can cause health problems in the middle. Many people sit on this with a deep breath saying that they have to sit in the middle, but sitting in an armchair is like a curved bed in the middle. The main part of its very simple construction is a canvas. Pranavars in armchairs in verandas have become symbols of tribal majesty, power and later laziness. Adoor Gopalakrishnan presented it most powerfully in the film Elipatthayam. Malayalees cannot forget Unnikunj on the armchair as a form of feudal power that is beginning to crumble. EV Krishnapilla has also written humorously regarding the reasons why people lie down in Charukaseri following midday and let out air.
But Charukasera is not unique to Kerala. The armchair is inspired by the camping chair, a part of British camping culture. This camping chair was used by the British to relax while visiting plantations and fishing along the river for recreation. Its specialty was that it might be folded and taken anywhere. Some Malayalee must have seen this and copied it. They needed a seat to sit in the plantation while controlling the laborers in the coconut groves etc. and supervising the cultivation work. Convenience is a chair that the steward can fold and take with him.
But the architect Wirtold Rybczynski, who wrote the history of chairs, says that these folding chairs are the earliest chairs in his chair history book Now I Sit Me Down. It was developed by some nomadic tribes of ancient China. Hand-held folding chairs were provided for those traveling when they felt like sitting.

Witold’s discovery is that the earliest forms of the chair can be found in tomb paintings in Egypt and in Greece. If we look at Greek pictures, we can see that people used chairs regardless of position or gender. Depictions of women and musicians sitting on chairs are found in Greek culture, just as chairs were used by gods and kings. As such, Witold observes, the chair was a popular tool in Greek culture. But he says in this book that this popular character later fell out of favor and the chair became something that only the rich might use.
The earliest form of the chair can be seen in the murals at Ajanta. The pedestals on which the Bodhisattvas sit resemble chairs. Ajanta paintings are believed to have been painted between the 1st and 6th centuries BC. Among these are chaired images believed to be inscribed in the 6th century BC. This is the time of the Vakataka dynasty.
This is a time when chairs are widespread, but even if you get a chair, you don’t sit. If you go to a bar, there is a guy who always hits you. He never sat at the bar. He would cross his arms and legs on the counter and hit two pegs and return. When asked why you never sit, Pulli took a class on the dangers of sitting.
The American Heart Association says that prolonged sitting is more deadly than smoking. Nilpan advises people with diabetes and heart disease to avoid prolonged sitting. In some countries like America, there are systems that can work from offices. Winston Churchill and Hemingway liked to work standing up. Churchill avoided sitting but did not avoid smoking cigars. Any accident would have been thought to be enough.
A chair is not only a device for sitting, it is a symbol of authority and an indicator of certain memories. A son or daughter who sees the chair in which the father always sits will not forget the father. Primary class highchairs will carry us through the school years. Just seeing a gramophone and an armchair will remind us of Bashir. Don’t always sit in one place. Don’t forget the reclining chairs.
