Often used as accent pieces, small leather armchairs can be the focal points of living rooms, which is why it is imperative that you choose the one that complements your furniture’s style without compromising comfort! We know that making the right choice or finding the perfect leather armchair can be challenging with such incredible products available online. It’s certainly tricky especially when you don’t know where to begin your search. Let us help you make things a bit easier by checking out the buying tips we’ve put together for you below.
When you’re living in an apartment or you have a small house, planning out the space is crucial as you wouldn’t want your place to look and feel cluttered. So, for your relaxation and safety, leave at least 3 feet of distance between a new small leather armchair and other furniture items. The rule applies especially when you’re planning to place your new small leather armchair in front of a coffee table. With the 3 ft clearance, you have sufficient room for moving around your home and standing up from the chair itself.
As your place has limited space, it’s essential that you only get a small leather armchair. It's also crucial that you check the dimensions of your chosen chair even when it says it’s small in size as not all small armchairs can fit into your home’s available space. Most small leather armchairs have a width of 24-32".
Determining the fit of a chair in your space entails you to find the potential spot of the furniture. Will it be the chair you use during cozy nights by the fire? Maybe it’s for your bedroom nook. If not, do you require a small leather armchair that can be used by a guest for sitting and relaxing? Perhaps you want a new armchair to fill up the excess space in your hallway. It's important that you consider the existing furniture in the room where the new chair will sit as you wouldn’t want your space to become overcrowded or cramped.
When deciding on an armchair’s style, work with the décor of the room. You can achieve a put-together look by matching your new small leather armchair to a couple of items that are already in the room through their pattern/s or color/s. It can be anything from picture frames, lamps, and pillows to knick-knacks.
To give you an example, imagine you have a striped accent pillow that’s currently on your sofa. Try getting the armchair that also has lines or one or both colors of the accent pillow. Doing so will allow you to have a chair that stands out against the existing furniture in the room. But, that’s not all as it’ll also keep the symmetry within the room as you are matching smaller pieces.
Another thing you can do is to match the armchair to your sofa if it’ll be placed in your living room.
As for the color, you may not know what fits best in your space. If that’s the case, choose a neutral one that has a transitional style as it’s your safest choice.
