The Hadley Pollet Lotus line of home textiles is inspired by Hadley's travels to Taiwan and her visits to many temples there, almost all of which have lotus ponds or feature the lotus flower in some way. The lotus flower is a representation of the womb of the universe – where all things are born. These flowers are also a symbol for overcoming adversity and retaining purity of spirit through life's challenges, as lotus flowers are most commonly found in swampy, difficult terrain – emerging from the dark, murky water pristine and beautiful. For Buddhists specifically, this flower also represents a connection between the universe's soul and their own. Yet Hindus have special connection with lotus flower symbolism, as well, because in Sanskrit, it's the character for enlightenment.
