Our advice Buying Guide
Are wingback chairs in style?
Wingback chairs never go out of style, thanks to their classic design and versatility. First introduced back in the 17th century, the wingback chair’s signature curved sides and high back were meant to keep occupants cozy in drafty houses. Today they are still considered cozy additions to any room, whether it be in front of a fireplace or a corner reading nook.
You can fit high wingback chairs into any home decor style, from farmhouse to mid-century modern, by choosing different sizes, colors, and upholstery fabrics. Look for different materials, including leather, velvet, or microfiber, to suit your home aesthetic.
Wingback chairs aren’t just for living rooms anymore. Add a streamlined set to your dining room table to add a touch of drama to the room. Place them in your bedroom or home office to make the room pop.
For a traditional touch, look for wingback chairs with button-tufted upholstery, rolled armrests, and ornate turned legs. For a modern home, try sleek tapered legs, box-style armrests, and an ultra-high back.
Where should a wingback chair be placed?
High wing back chairs can take up a lot of room, so you’ll want to place them properly. With their backs to a corner, high wing back chairs can often most efficiently present a cozy place to sit and a great focal point.
Placing chairs like these on either end of a long dining room table can also be a great way to go.
Finally, if you have a smaller sofa in your living room and space for one other chair, consider supplementing a small sofa with a larger wing back chair to proportion your living room in a cozy yet efficient way.
How many wingback chairs should I have in one room?
High wingback chairs look best as a solo accent piece in your living room or used as a set of two. However, it depends on the layout and size of the room and your current décor.
To create a conversation set, place two wingback chairs in front of a fireplace for a cozy romantic feel. A small coffee table between the two chairs is perfect for placing a beverage on while you socialize.
Or, add visual interest to a corner in your room with one high wingback chair. These beautiful and unique furniture pieces make stunning accent pieces when you select brightly colored or boldly patterned upholstery.
