If you don’t see exactly what you are looking for, simply give us a call and we’ll help you find or create your own perfect armchair. So, sit back and let the tour begin…
1: Luxury Designer Contemporary Armchair
How much more contemporary would you like to be? A strikingly beautiful, angular frame in a highly-polished 24 carat gold finish is teamed with the superb comfort of deep cushions and soft, luxury upholstery. Make it your own with a wide range of metallic and lacquer finishes and fabric options.
2: Contemporary Italian Designer Leather Occasional Armchair
Sleek modern styling at its best, this contemporary armchair is timeless in its appeal. Add the subtle ruching to its ergonomically designed cushions and you have an outstanding item of furniture. We can see this as a statement, stand-alone piece, co-ordinating with the rest of the room but a striking piece in its own right.
3: Luxury Designer Contemporary Italian Armchair
Dramatic, imposing and eye-catching, this fabulous contemporary armchair uses polished chrome as a statement design feature. Shown here in a printed silver fabric, options include textured fabrics, soft leathers and supple nubuck. Arranged as an informal, offset pair or grouped formally, these armchairs would make a wonderful library corner or intimate nook in an open plan space.
4: Modern Italian Designer Nubuck Rocking Armchair
Who wouldn’t love the beautiful curves of this stylish, contemporary armchair? Perfect as a bedroom chair, somewhere to relax with a good book or to watch TV. Shown here with soft, burnished brass arms and rocker, and sumptuous taupe nubuck upholstery, it can be customised to create your perfect combination of textures and colours, whichever room it’s intended for.
5: Exclusive Modern Italian Velvet Quilted Tub Armchair
Contemporary armchairs are a great way of adding a pop of colour. This is one of our favourite armchairs, with its on-trend vertical quilting and rich ochre velvet. Imagine it in your favourite colour. In fact, why stick with just one colour when you have such a choice of velvets, fine fabrics and faux or real leathers.
6: Italian Designer Modern Nubuck Leather Armchair
A different take on your usual tub chair. We love the effortless, cocoon-like shape of this ultra-comfortable, stylish chair. This contemporary armchair would work in any room in your home – grouped around a coffee table, in a hallway, bedroom or study, or taking pride of place in a modern living room. Shown here in a soft grey nubuck, simply choose your favourite colours and fabrics to make it your own.
7: Exclusive Modern Italian Velvet Armchair
This is a lovely, high-sided tub chair, available in two sizes and perfect to snuggle into. Equally at home in living room, bedroom, hallway or study, the super-soft, burnt orange velvet adds a splash of warmth and colour to every corner of your home. With an extensive library of alternative fabrics, you are spoiled for choice.
8: Luxury Italian Designer Leather Twist Armchair
A real statement piece if ever there was one. This contemporary armchair’s unique, twisted leather back is as beautiful as it is unusual. If you are looking for something a bit different, without compromising on comfort, this is the armchair for you. Swap the burnished metallic frame for black nickel or copper, and the taupe nubuck for coloured leather to create your own customised chair. Stunning!
9: Italian Designer Contemporary Furry Walnut Armchair & Footstool
Imagine sinking into this luxurious armchair and putting your feet up at the end of a long day. Its elegant, Scandi styling contrasts playfully with a gorgeously tactile, tufted fabric. Of course, this can be changed for a smooth, soft leather or any one of a range of fabrics – but why would you?
10: High End Modern Armchair and Pouffe Set
A perfect example of what is being called the Fat Furniture movement, this contemporary armchair surrounds you in layer upon layer of soft, unashamed comfort. No sharp corners. No straight lines. We see this as the perfect TV or movie chair in a cosy family room or living room. Obviously, you need space if you are to have more than one but think how fabulous they would look. Cosy up with the kids, make space for the dog, or just keep it all to yourself. We know which we would do.
