Traditional Accent Chairs
An antique accent chair is one of the best ways to add interest to virtually any room in your home. These traditional accent chairs are especially pleasing to the eye because of their unique profiles and classical sensibilities; they draw your gaze to a focal point in the room, enhancing the surrounding setting. These chairs go great in the corner of a primary bedroom, opposite the bed, or as a pair flanking the fireplace or an antique coffee table in the living room. One or two adequately placed traditional accent chairs can transform an entire room and add functional seating while creating a warm, inviting atmosphere for you and your house guests.
The first step in adding an accent piece to your home is determining the style and functionality that suits you best. Are you tight on space? Is comfort more critical or style more important? Do you prefer traditional upholstery or a classic but updated look? Small living room and bedroom spaces can benefit from armless chairs (sometimes called side chairs). If comfort is your primary goal, then go with something that not only has an upholstered seat but also an upholstered back, like our Victorian Spoon-back Armchair; the coil spring seat cushion is tremendously comfortable while the tufted backrest offers visual interest and additional back support. Lastly, choose your fabrics wisely. Patterned damasks and jacquards are classic and will always look stunning in a traditional home, but if you want a more modern or contemporary vibe, our skilled craftspeople are willing to install any of your custom upholstery you may have for an additional fee.
