Armchairs
Whether you're furnishing a living room, dining space, or home office, the right armchair balances comfort, proportion, and material quality. From compact occasional seats to fully reclining loungers, the range covers every brief.
Styles & Materials
Chesterfield armchairs bring deep button-tufting and rolled arms — available in genuine leather or fabric for a traditional silhouette that holds its structure over time. Velvet armchairs suit contemporary and maximalist interiors equally, with crush-pile finishes in emerald, blush, and midnight tones. Antique armchairs — carved hardwood frames, cabriole legs, tapestry or brocade upholstery — suit period properties and curated eclectic spaces.
Leather armchairs remain a practical long-term investment: easy to clean, resistant to wear, and available in full-grain, bi-cast, and bonded grades. Colour-wise, grey and cream sit neutrally across most schemes; blue and pink work as accent pieces where a single chair anchors the palette.
Armchairs by Room & Function
Dining room: A black armchair at the table head adds visual weight without bulk. Armchair dining chairs typically feature a tighter seat depth, straight back, and no-tip base — proportioned for table height rather than lounging.
Living room: Recliner armchairs serve distinct needs. Fixed recliners prioritise deep lumbar support and leg extension; swivel recliners add 360° rotation, useful in open-plan layouts where sightlines shift. Both are available with heat, massage, and USB-charging functions.
Elderly users: Armchairs designed for older adults prioritise high seat height (for easier standing), firm lateral support, and rise-assist mechanisms. Fabric armchair options with non-slip bases and removable washable covers address practical daily-use requirements.
Home office: A small armchair introduces a secondary seating zone without consuming desk-area square footage. Compact models — under 75cm wide — fit alcoves, bay windows, and narrow studies.
