Take a seat: the armchairs to invest in
Home comfort or object of design? Autumn’s armchairs are the best of both
This season’s armchairs are all about comfort meets character. Plush silhouettes wrapped in tactile fabrics — from rich bouclé to soft velvet — invite you to sink in and stay awhile. Earthy neutrals remain a favorite, but pops of rust, olive, and deep blue are adding warmth and depth to modern interiors.
Our in-house designers have embraced organic shapes and sculptural lines to create armchairs that double as statement pieces. Curved backs, oversized proportions, and artful legs turn everyday seating into a style moment, perfect for anchoring any living space or reading nook.
All our armchairs are subjected to 20 rigourous quality checks for quality you can feel and each comes with a 25 year guarantee.*
Want it before Christmas? Order by 27th October for Made to Order or 12th December for 7 day orders.
