Got a traditional taste?

Like a much-loved family heirloom, traditional-styled armchairs have timeless looks inspired by pre-20th century designs. Rounded and asymmetrical shapes are common. Upholstery is typical, too: fabric, padding or springs.

More elements of traditional style

Natural materials and fibres (cotton, linen, wool) enhance old-fashioned simplicity. Neutral, muted earth tones (beige, grey, green, brown) are more common. Patterns are organic, figurative, floral, striped or checked. Details – buttons, piping, skirts, turned wooden legs – add a handcrafted, decorative feel.
