Originating in France, the club chair probably derives its name from the gentlemen’s clubs where they could be found. This accent chair is available in a variety of sizes and shapes, but all aim towards comfort. The typical club chair is roomy and deep, generally bound with leather (sheep’s leather is the classic). Faux leather is also popular, as is nail-head trim. These are a great chair for the living room, and can usually be found in pairs along with a couch. There are more compact sized club chairs if you are putting one in a tiny apartment or will need to move it around frequently. Also consider one with an optional recliner for added comfort.
