Art Deco club chairs
 

Art deco club chairs are typically armchairs made with leather outer coverings. They were first made in France and was originally known as the “comfortable chair”. Given their extraordinary beauty, these chairs help to redefine the ambiance in any sitting room. However, you cannot buy just any chair and hope it will provide the beauty and comfort you are looking for. The following are some of the features to look out for:


1. The Right Hue

While art deco club chairs are meant to enhance the aesthetics in your home, it is important that you get the hue just right. When making that decision, bear in mind the existing palette in your home. One of the ways you can approach it is to go for the saturated versions such as creamy white, heavy black or chocolate brown. As an option, you may go for the less-restrained colours. In that case, you may choose the rich, eye-catching shades of red, blue, yellow, and green. However, make sure you have only four shades or less.


2. Condition

Even though a style that was popularized in the 1930s, it is possible to find new art deco club chairs today. These are mainly reproductions of the style popularized by the French. Since they are new chairs, their quality cannot be in doubt.
Alternatively, you may want to buy restored chairs that have undergone what’s widely known as “upcycling”. These are mainly vintage pieces of furniture that have been refurbished by re-upholstering with the latest fabrics. Some have their frames revamped with great finishes. Undoubtedly, vintage chairs are great when it comes to giving a new look to your living space. However, their vintage nature makes them very expensive.

The last option is to choose vintage art deco club chairs that were first made some 100 years ago. Luckily, there are numerous online retail sites offering vintage chairs for sale. However, don’t expect them to be smooth and fine. Many are scarred with cigarette burns and could be unsightly. The upholstery is also likely to be way past its usefulness. As such, you may require to put in a little bit of effort to restore vintage chairs. Despite that, it’s all worth the effort.


3. Shape and Scale

Art deco club chairs come in all kinds of elegant shapes and designs. They have angled legs which makes them capable of filling up your living space and provide the best results. But it’s not just the shape of the chairs that matter. Importantly, the scale is also key. In most cases, these chairs were made to be oversized and weighty. That’s why it’s important to choose a scale that best fits within the space you have in mind. While at it, you could be forced to try something beyond your comfort zone.


4. The Cost

When it comes to the price, art deco club chairs can be affordable or costly, depending on the piece you choose. A single quality chair may cost anything between $1,000 and $15,000. That’s why you have to choose carefully. It is important to test the stability of the piece of furniture to ensure it doesn’t balk under your weight. You don’t want to discover you bought a wrong seat only for you to return it to the seller. Apart from being firm, the seat should be capable of moving allowing you to ease out without a problem. As for the armrests, they should be able to give comfort to your arms.

After a careful online search, it is possible to find the best art deco club chairs. Once you do, go ahead and make them an integral part of your home.
