In the grand scheme of home decoration, the humble armchair quite often gets overlooked in favour of bigger furniture pieces. But, we're here to make a case for why you absolutely need a top armchair in your life, and your living spaces.
After all, an armchair isn't just for front rooms. Entryways, bedrooms, landings and under stair spaces can all benefit from having an armchair in residence. So, if you're starting to come around to the idea of opening up your home to an armchair, take a look at some of our top armchairs for 2017...
The Foxham
The Foxham armchair
If you're into classic shapes and contemporary silhouettes, The Foxham armchair should be right up your street. Slender, slim and angular, this armchair looks great in subtle colours. But, it can easily be jazzed up with a bright velvet from our fabric collection.
The Downton
The Downton armchair
As cushiony soft to sit on as you'd imagine it to be, The Downton has long been one of our best-loved armchair styles. It lends itself to traditional surroundings as well as it does modern furnishings, looking the picture of perfection in summery washed cottons and strokable winter wools.
The Hamptworth
The Hamptworth armchair
Little bun feet and slender shaped arms give The Hamptworth a grown-up appearance, that's only magnified when you choose a fabric in a muted tone. But classics can always be reinvented and we think this pipe-trimmed beauty looks a treat in a vibrant colour.
The Buttermere
The Buttermere armchair
Curl up in The Buttermere and you're in danger of idling away for a lot longer than you'd intended. With beautiful scrolled arms and a mindfully arched back, this glorious armchair hugs you in all the right places and keeps you more comfortable than you'd ever thought possible.
The Atworth

Graceful hand-shaped arms lovingly hugged by a sumptuous seat cushion; The Atworth armchair is beautifully classy and stylish in any home. It’s also perfect to snuggle up on at the end of a long day with its super-high squish factor! So, all in all, its a bit of a winner in the design and comfort stakes.
The Elmley
The Elmley armchair
This nifty little number cleverly combines traditional details with a modern edge, making it a great addition to contemporary homes and character properties alike. With splayed out arms and a bouncy soft seat cushion, it's the perfect resting to park your cheeks.
The Lyneham
The Lyneham armchair
With hand-carved scrolled arms and nimble walnut feet, The Lyneham is another top armchair. A true English classic reinvented, that's ready to hug you every time you snuggle down amidst its ludicrously soft seat. So, curling up in this big softie is nothing short of bliss.
The Dunsmore
The Dunsmore armchair
This stylish beauty is the perfect coming together of angular clean lines and sculpted curved arms, making The Dunsmore a bit of a runway model from any angle. It's really comfortable, really well made and really stylish.
The Chilmark
The Chilmark armchair
Totally moreish with its sumptuous cushioned back and lovely deep seat cushions to snuggle up on, The Chilmark armchair is ridiculously comfortable. It's also wonderfully stylish with its curved back, beautiful shaped arms and piping detail. So, The Chilmark feels as dreamy to sit on as it looks, making it a fine feature piece in a living room arrangement.
The Haselbury
The Haselbury armchair
This is one of our more compact armchair styles. But what the Haselbury forfeits in terms of size, it more than makes up for in the comfort stakes. With a lovingly hand-upholstered frame in an attractive wrap around style, The Haselbury is a snug little beauty which hugs its occupant from every conceivable angle.
So, there you have it, the crème de la crème of our lovingly handcrafted armchair styles.
