Wingback Chairs

Where should wingback chairs be placed?

Wingback chairs are a classic piece of furniture that can add style and comfort to many rooms in the home. Here are some ideas on where to place them:

1. Living room: A wingback chair can be a great addition to a living room, providing extra seating and adding a touch of elegance. Consider placing it in a corner or as part of a seating area.

2. Bedroom: A wingback chair can be a cosy addition to a bedroom, providing a comfortable spot to read or relax. Consider placing it next to a window or in a corner.

3. Dining room: Wingback chairs can be used as dining chairs, adding a touch of sophistication to the dining room. They work particularly well at the ends of a rectangular table.

4. Home office: A wingback chair can be a great addition to a home office, providing a comfortable and stylish place to work. Consider placing it in a corner or next to a bookshelf.

When choosing a spot for your wingback chair, consider the overall design and layout of the room, as well as the other furniture and decor. You want to create a cohesive and inviting space that is both functional and stylish.

What is the purpose of a wingback chair?

A wingback chair is a type of armchair that features "wings" on either side of the backrest, which are designed to shield the user from drafts and create a cosy, enclosed feeling.

Originally, these chairs were designed in the 17th and 18th centuries to be placed near fireplaces, where they provided protection from the heat and drafts. Over time, wingback chairs have become popular for their stylish and elegant design, and are now commonly used in living rooms, bedrooms, and other areas of the home.

The high back and deep seat of a wingback chair make it a comfortable and supportive option for sitting and relaxing. Many modern wingback chairs are also designed to be customizable, allowing users to choose the fabric, colour, and other details to create a chair that fits their specific needs and style preferences. Overall, the purpose of a wingback chair is to provide a comfortable, stylish, and functional seating option that adds a touch of elegance to any room in the home.

How do you style a wingback chair?

Styling a wingback chair can be a great way to add character and personality to a room. Here are some tips for styling a wingback chair:

1. Choose the right placement: Wingback chairs look great when placed in a corner, as this emphasizes their cosy, enclosed feeling. Alternatively, you could place the chair in the centre of a room to make it a focal point.

2. Consider the colour and pattern: Wingback chairs come in a range of colours and patterns, so choose one that complements the rest of your decor. If you want to make a statement, choose a bold or patterned fabric that stands out.

3. Add a throw or cushion: Adding a cushion or throw to your wingback chair can make it more comfortable and inviting. Choose a cushion or throw in a complementary colour or pattern to tie the look together.

4. Accessorize: You can accessorize your wingback chair with a range of items, such as a decorative pillow, a small table, or a reading lamp. Just be sure to choose items that complement the style and colour of the chair.

5. Consider the rest of the room: To ensure that your wingback chair fits seamlessly into the room, consider the other elements in the space. Choose decor items, such as curtains or rugs, that complement the style and colour of the chair to create a cohesive look.
