If you’re after an armchair that will make a lasting impression, IKEA is the perfect place to look. Our leather and faux leather armchairs offer timeless beauty that only gets better with age, as well as pure comfort. Attractive shapes and elegant colours, premium materials and expert craftsmanship all help create a look that’s not only luxurious and sophisticated, but also warm and inviting. That makes a leather or faux leather armchair an excellent choice not only for living spaces, but also for offices and waiting rooms. The only question is: which armchair is right for you? A compact leather armchair might be just the thing for your favourite reading nook. A leather recliner, while requiring a little more space, gives you a dedicated spot for complete relaxation.

Introducing our timeless leather and faux leather armchairs

IKEA leather armchairs impress with their natural character, high comfort and unique patina – the material develops its own charm as the years go by. Thanks to their warm appearance and supple surfaces, brown or black leather armchairs bring depth and cosiness to your room. Our faux leather armchairs look just as good – ideal if you want to avoid real leather for any reason. Faux leather is especially practical: it’s durable, quick-drying, and a great choice for homes with children or pets. Discover the model that suits you and your style – with or without a headrest, as a subtle swivel chair or a statement wing chair in leather.

Enjoy more freedom of movement: leather armchairs with rocking or swivel bases

Leather armchairs that rock or swivel bring a sense of lightness to your living room or wherever you place them. A modern leather recliner with a rocking base makes for the perfect ergonomic break from everyday life. Whether you want to gently rock and let your mind wander or simply lean back and unwind, you’ll find your spot. A swivel leather armchair is a comfortable addition to your lounge or TV area in the living room, and gives you extra flexibility in your home office. With a swivel armchair, you can easily adjust your seat to your conversation, your lighting, or your mood.

Even more relaxation – leather armchairs with footstools

A leather wing chair with a footstool is pure comfort. You can put your feet up and let your cares drift away. Want to stretch out after a long day, throw a cosy blanket over your legs and just relax? Or maybe you’d like the choice between a quick break on a leather footstool by the coffee table and a long evening’s reading in a modern recliner? Take a closer look at our faux leather and leather armchairs with footstools.

Clever combinations – leather armchairs for every style

Whether it’s a club chair, lounge chair or recliner, IKEA leather and faux leather armchairs let you create modern focal points, elegant nooks and inviting sofa-and-armchair arrangements. Need some inspiration?

• Brown leather armchairs look especially homely paired with natural materials – think wooden chests of drawers or tables, and accessories made from bamboo or rattan.
• Black leather armchairs work well with urban touches of metal, glass or even plastic – perhaps a modern plastic side table or a coffee table made from metal and glass?
• A club chair in faux leather or leather offers a unique retro charm, highlighted by vintage accessories and textiles in deep red or petrol blue.
• Modern lounge or wing chairs in leather can become true centrepieces in your hallway, study or reading corner. A minimalist side table keeps the focus on your chair, while a cosy throw adds an extra touch of comfort.

Tip: Add a rug, frame your chair with beautiful curtains, and use LED lighting to make your IKEA leather or faux leather armchair even more inviting.

Easy-care and long-lasting – how to keep your leather armchair looking its best

Our leather and faux leather armchairs are easy to care for: dust and minor marks can usually be wiped away with a damp cloth. For real leather, we recommend using specialist products regularly to keep the material supple and elastic. Faux leather also stays looking great if you wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap now and then, and use the appropriate conditioning products. For best results, keep your leather furniture out of direct sunlight and away from radiators, to protect its colour and structure – otherwise, the surface could fade. With these tips, your real or impressively realistic faux leather armchair will remain a faithful companion for many years to come.
