Ready to find your match? Explore our versatile range of occasional chairs designed for style, comfort, and durability.

What is an Accent Chair?

An accent chair’s primary role is to enhance a room’s aesthetic while providing functional seating. Unlike standard chairs, it stands out through its design, fabric, or colour, adding depth and character to your décor. At Furnt, our accent chairs—like the popular Taylor Textured Fabric Occasional Chair—are designed to complement your existing furniture while making a statement of their own.

Available in multiple finishes including Dark Green, White, and Orange, the Taylor chair exemplifies how a single design can adapt to different moods and spaces. Whether you’re looking to create a cosy reading nook or add a splash of colour to your living room, an accent chair offers endless styling possibilities.

Where to Place Your Accent Chair

Accent chairs are incredibly versatile. Here’s how to make the most of them in your home:

• Living Rooms: Use one to balance a sofa arrangement or create an intimate seating area near a fireplace.

• Bedrooms: Perfect as vanity seating or a tranquil corner chair for reading.

• Entryways: Make a strong first impression with a chair that offers both style and function.

• Home Offices: Add a touch of sophistication with a comfortable guest chair.

No matter the room, a Furnt accent chair delivers both form and function.

Finding Your Style: From Classic to Contemporary

Accent chairs come in a range of styles, each bringing its own flair:

• Mid-Century Modern: Clean lines, organic shapes, and timeless appeal.

• Wingback Chairs: Traditional elegance with high backs and plush upholstery.

• Slim Slipper Chairs: Armless and compact—ideal for smaller spaces.

• Statement Pieces: Chairs with ottomans, bold colours, or textured fabrics.

The Taylor Chair from Furnt, for example, blends contemporary texture with classic comfort. Its deep seating and premium fabric make it a standout in any setting—whether you choose Dark Green for a rich look, White for freshness, or Orange for a vibrant pop.

Material Matters: Comfort Meets Practicality

The right upholstery can elevate both the look and longevity of your accent chair:

• Velvet & Textured Fabrics: Luxurious and inviting, perfect for making a style statement.

• Performance Materials: Stain-resistant and durable—ideal for busy households.

• Natural Fibres: Linen and cotton offer breathability and a relaxed vibe.

• Leather: Timeless, easy to clean, and ages beautifully.

At Furnt, we select fabrics that are not only beautiful but also built to last. Each chair in our collection is crafted with attention to detail, ensuring you receive a piece that’s as practical as it is stylish.

How to Choose the Right Accent Chair

Here are a few key considerations before making your choice:

1. Size & Scale: Ensure the chair fits comfortably in your space without overwhelming it.

2. Comfort: Look for supportive seating, ergonomic design, and the right seat depth.

3. Colour & Pattern: Decide whether you want your chair to blend in or stand out.

4. Function: Will it be used for reading, extra seating, or purely as décor?

Pro Tip:
Use painter’s tape to mark the chair’s dimensions in your room. This helps visualise scale and placement before you commit.

Styling Your Accent Chair

A well-styled accent chair can become the heart of a room:

• Create a Reading Nook: Pair with a floor lamp, small side table, and soft throw.

• Use in Pairs: Flank a fireplace or place two chairs opposite a sofa for symmetry.

• Make It a Focal Point: Choose a bold colour or unique shape to draw the eye.

Add cushions or a blanket in complementary colours to enhance comfort and style.

Caring for Your Furnt Accent Chair

To keep your chair looking its best:

• Regularly vacuum fabric surfaces to prevent dust buildup.

• Address spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth.

• Avoid direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.

• Check care labels for specific material instructions.

With minimal care, your Furnt accent chair will remain a centrepiece for years.
