Occasional & Accent Chairs

Occasional chairs double as living room chairs beside a sofa or lounge suite , and an occasional armchair or lounge chair makes a comfortable reading seat. In a bedroom, a chair at the end of the bed or by a window gives you somewhere to sit and dress. For more bedroom options, see our bedroom chairs . 

For comfort, check the seat depth and the padding. Several chairs here use high-density foam, which holds its shape with daily use. To put your feet up, add a footstool from our stools and ottomans , or see our rocking chairs . 

Bouclé is the most common accent chair upholstery in this range, followed by velvet and chenille. Bouclé is soft and textured, velvet is smooth, and chenille is plush. For a leather look, see our PU leather accent chairs . 

White and cream make up the largest share of colours, followed by brown, green and beige, with a few in black, blue, orange and pink. Our beige accent chairs suit neutral rooms with warm timber. For care, vacuum with a soft brush, blot spills rather than rubbing, and keep chairs out of direct sun to avoid fading. 

Swivel chairs turn a full 360 degrees, which helps in open-plan rooms where you move between the TV, the dining table and the kitchen. Curved chairs suit modern rooms and wrap around the sitter. 

For a small space, compare depth and height as well as width, so the chair suits the room's proportions. Where listed, weight limits run from 120kg to 150kg. 

A statement accent chair can be the focal point of a room. Choose one bold colour or texture and keep the rest of the room calmer. Pair it with a side table for a drink or lamp, and place a rug under the front legs to anchor the seat. For a conversation area, set two chairs either side of a coffee table .
