Brown Armchairs

Which style of brown armchair should you choose?

Brown is the colour of natural materials: leather, teak and natural weaving. For a vintage look, the Club armchair evokes the intimate atmosphere of English clubs, in polished brown leather split or distressed tobacco-toned microfibre. Made on the island of Java from solid teak and cowhide leather, either smooth or hand-woven, the Kuna armchair features a retro design with timeless appeal. For an industrial style, black metal adds a more raw character: Hugues combines brown leather with a metal frame, Octave recreates the silhouette of the butterfly chair designed in Buenos Aires in 1938, while Gustave features the low lines of 1930s lounge seating on an X-shaped crossed base. For a more contemporary living room, Ricci introduces this warm shade into a swivel armchair in velvet-effect fabric, while Kilka combines teak and rattan.

Light brown, dark brown or chocolate: which shade should you choose?

For a deep brown, the Club armchair in polished brown leather split and the Kuna in a deep-coloured smooth leather add depth to a living room. The distressed Club, with its tobacco-toned patina, creates a softer, more textured look. Octave and Gustave, in warm brown buffalo leather, evolve with you: the leather develops a patina and darkens slightly over the years. For a brighter shade, Ricci in caramel-toned brown velvet and the Kuna in woven leather on natural teak bring a lighter warmth.

Which colours go with a brown armchair?

Brown naturally works well with beige, ecru and off-white for a soft atmosphere, or with deep green and terracotta for a bolder living room. Pair it with a brown chair or a brown coffee table to create a cohesive thread throughout the room without opting for a total look. In the dining area or at the bar, a brown bar stool extends the same colour palette.

How do you care for a brown armchair?

Leather and buffalo leather. Dust with a soft, dry cloth, wipe up spills promptly and nourish the leather with a balm once or twice a year. On buffalo leather, the patina and signs of use are part of the material. Coated leather split. The protective film on the Club armchair makes everyday care easier. Fabric, velvet and microfibre. Vacuum regularly using a brush attachment. In the event of a stain, act quickly: use warm soapy water and a clean, well-wrung sponge, then leave to air-dry.
