Our advice Buying Guide
Where in a living room can I place a French style armchair?
If you're wondering where in the living room you should place a French-style armchair, then we've got you covered. French-style armchairs are designed with both elegance and comfort in mind. So feel free to place your armchair near a fireplace to enjoy the warmth on those frosty days or near a window, where you can settle down and read a book, while enjoying the scenery of the outdoors. French-style armchairs can even be placed around a small oval-shaped dining table to complete the look of your living room and enjoy the practicality of enjoying some tea and scones at the same time.
What is the most durable fabric for a French style armchair?
Various durable fabrics are perfect for upholstering a French style armchair, including microfiber, cotton, and linen. Microfiber is a material made from polyester and is a popular choice when upholstering furniture. It has a velvet-like texture that adds elegance and sophistication and is much more durable than classic velvet. It also resists stains, water, and fading, making it an excellent fabric for French style armchairs that are regularly used.
Cotton is also another excellent upholstery material because it is a breathable fabric. It also has good abrasion resistance, meaning it can withstand wear and tear. It also resists pilling and is not stiff, so it is exceptionally comfortable.
Linen is also perfect for French style armchair upholstery because it is durable. As well as having a lower environmental impact than other materials, it is also incredibly lightweight and breathable.
