Striped Armchairs
Armchairs are historically single colored. And because of that they can often be difficult to situate in a home if the color is just a little bit off or if your color scheme is two-toned. That is why having a striped armchair is so much better than a single color. The stripes can offset color tones that are difficult to match, and it is not terribly difficult to find a striped pattern there will suit your space in an aesthetically pleasing way.

Striped armchairs are made to fit all kinds of living arrangements. They're great add-ons to living rooms and bedrooms as they provide additional seating and enhance the look of the space as well.
If you are on the hunt for a vintage striped armchair, you will find that issues such as snags in the upholstery, missing buttons, and worn-out cushioning are not uncommon. These small issues, fortunately, can be repaired easily. A major wobble or a broken leg, however, can be hard to repair and is something that you should not consider. After all, no one needs you falling on your bum during Thanksgiving!
When buying an armchair, you need to assess the chair’s condition as one of the main reasons why you’re getting one is to offer extra seating. Yes, a striped armchair isn’t just another pretty face. That being said, make sure the chair is sturdy and stable enough for daily use.
There are several things you need to look out for when selecting a new armchair including the joinery within a chair’s frame. Glues, dowels, brackets, and screws are signs that the chair’s frame has been constructed in the proper way. If you can’t see how the unit was constructed, make sure you get a good warranty from the manufacturer.
A striped armchair is an excellent statement piece. But, you should make sure that you don’t mix different interior styles as a Mid-Century Modern armchair will look odd or hideous within a room that’s full of furniture with French Country styling. This rule applies to hue or color as well. It is fun to experiment; however, you need to ensure that your chair complements your room’s existing décor instead of overpowering it.
Most homeowners purchase armchairs and get heartbroken when their orders arrive as they got units that don’t have the perfect fit for their space. As a smart buyer, you should map out the place where your new armchair will stay. Measure it not just once but twice. It is also wise to take into consideration the scale of the chair as it must match the existing furniture in the room. So, if your existing furniture pieces are all apartment-sized, it is not wise to opt for a massive, hulking recliner.
Typical armchairs are constructed using different kinds of timber. Maple, birch, oak, and pine are used frequently as they make sturdy chair frames. As these materials are the best for chairs, they come at a cost.
Your other options for the frame of your armchair are engineered woods. Plywood, a manufactured wood product, comprises of various slices of wood glued together and placed under a huge amount of pressure. The technique has been improved over the years, so manufacturers would say high-quality plywood is as good as solid wood.
Just like with anything that’s made of wood, make sure that you choose an armchair that is treated for moisture and insects. It must also be sustainably sourced.
