Perfect For: Compact spaces and elegant, timeless interiors.
What We Like: Variety of fabric options
Crafted in solid and engineered wood along with plastic, this round armchair has a classic, contemporary look that is versatile for all interiors. It features a tight back design with slender, flared arms and a half-round square loose cushion seat. The piece sits on four tapered legs, finished in black. Meanwhile, the upholstered aspects are covered in polyester blend fabric, available in 24 colors. Tone on tone stitching along its base seat and barrel exterior provide a timeless elegance.
Designer Advice:
A great accent chair that can be paired with sofas with rolled or square arms. We recommend choosing a different color to that of your couch for a pop of freshness. Or if you want a more coordinated and sublime look, then opt for the fabric closest to your sofa. You can also use this for a nook, paired with a round side table.

Rounded arms and seat with a low back pillow that lend added comfort to the sitter.

Designer Advice:
Create the perfect conversation area with these chairs. If you have a gray and white or black color scheme, we recommend the rust-colored option to add a touch of warmth to your space. Pair it with a chic low side table in black for ultimate sophistication. For interiors with white or beige color schemes, the blue, gray, white, and cream units are your best bet.

Two Seater Round Comfy Chair
Sand & Stable™
$999.99 $1459.99
Perfect For: Two people or for semi-lying down
What We Like: Large seating capacity
Curl up with a good book or with your loved one in this round comfy chair. It has a low back that goes around its wide round seat. The entire piece is framed in solid wood and plywood and stuffed with synthetic fiberfill. Upholstered in polyester blend, available in eight solid colors. The set includes three oversized round pillows as well as a toss pillow for added comfort. Stain-resistant with removable and reversible cushions for easy cleaning.
Designer Advice:
While this can be an accent chair in the living room, we can see it more in the den or in the bedroom, being used as a reading chair. Just add a tall floor lamp with an adjustable head and pair it with a block side table. Complete the ensemble with a large area rug, in a contrasting color or in a graphic print for a highly-inviting look.
What Users Say:
Great chair! Super comfortable! Everyone fights to sit in it.
Big round chair in a monochrome design

The wisest choice to complement your living room would be a round chair in one of the existing colors of your palette.
For a more cohesive seating area, you can even opt for the same hue as your couch. For an accent chair that stands out, on the contrary, pick your palette’s accent color (duh). You can then still reinforce the consistency of the overall result by adding cushions in one of these tones, too.
Plus, monochrome designs are a safe option if your couch already showcases a noticeable pattern.

Some round chairs simply add different lines to traditional models, but some others reinvent them altogether.
The latter might be a better choice for you if you never settle for the most common or obvious choice.
From eclectic or Hollywood regency decors to adding a conversation starter to other interior styles, a round chair in a unique design is guaranteed to make a strong decorative statement in your home.

The papasan model is still one of the most iconic takes on the round chair idea. Timeless and minimalist but incredibly comfy, it will result in interesting lines that are bound to make a strong statement in your living room.

If, your couch and main furniture pieces involve a monochrome finish, your new round chair can be your chance to introduce a bold new pattern.
Ready to showcase your decorative skills masterfully? Then include the same pattern elsewhere in that room: for example, through the cushions on your couch, a rug, or a print.

Some other circular chairs are more similar to traditional models but involve a rounded back and, in some cases, armrests.
If the main reason why you’re after round chairs is that you’re worried about your room looking cluttered, this tends to be the most logical solution.
Want to know another trick? Monochrome designs in light colors can help you emphasize this airy effect even further.

Your new round chair doesn’t necessarily need to involve fabric or leather upholstery. Whether you were looking to match your rattan furniture or introduce a different style in a more traditional living room, you can’t go wrong with this material.
Rattan designs are especially recommended with decor styles that involve some casual vibes, such as coastal or bohemian interiors.

Best Choice Products
Round chairs aren’t just for the living room. If you’ve already fallen in love with them, you could consider introducing them into your patio or garden area, too.
A set of two tends to work in most outdoor spaces, and you can even include a small table in the same shape or a square design if you’d like to keep it varied.
If your new chair won’t be sheltered underneath some kind of roof, be sure to look for a weather-resistant model.

There is just something about a round shape that catches the eye. Perhaps it's because of the unique effect it has on straight surfaces but it may also be due to its soft curve. Regardless of what it is, a round chair has proven extremely valuable in a home's design. Adding a round chair in your living room is a surefire way in breathing life and adding personality into your space.
- Leather - Round chairs can come with leather covers. If you want to use a natural material, leather is a good option but it's worth remembering that no two hides or leather are exactly the same. Also, neck wrinkles, insect bites, growth lines, veins, and scars of a leather covering aren't faults. As a matter of fact, most homeowners consider them as features that enhance a chair's natural beauty. Leather is our personal favorite as well as it improves with age.
- Fabric - There are over 150 choices when it comes to fabric coverings and they all have the same attractive designs, wearing properties, and the ability to offer value for your money. If you're looking for an exact color out of a round chair, then you'd mostly find it with a fabric covering.
A chair's frame gives the entire piece its structure and shape. You'd want your chair's frame to be tough, durable, and strong so it copes with everyday life's demands. As for the support of your chair, you can choose from webbing, zigzag springs, sprung edges, traditional springs, and serpentine.
When it comes to a chair's filling, which is its comfort layer, your two choices are foam and fiber. If you want the firmest feel and a material that can retain its look, then you would want a foam filling. Traditional round chairs are mostly filled with foam. As for fiber, it's a synthetic filling that offers soft or medium level of comfort. The softness or firmness will depend on the filling's density and quality. A round chair that has a fiber filling needs plumping daily in order to ensure that the furniture retains its shape. When you look for your available options online, you'll find that the more expensive units are filled with fiber.
A small round chair that has a foam filling will cost anywhere between $150 and $500. For an expensive model that's constructed using premium materials, then expect the price to be anywhere between $500 and $1,000. As for designer models, they can easily cost thousands of dollars. Also, certain styles are more expensive compared to others as different materials are used, which play a huge role in the total cost of round chairs. The expensive material is real leather. If you're after the look of leather but you’d rather cut on costs, then opt for faux leather.
