Alex Bordeaux Velvet Accent Chair

The Alex chair channels Scandinavian modern silhouettes, pairing these classic forms with a sumptuous velvet upholstery. In other words, it’s perfect for curling up with a cup of coffee after a long day.

Arc’s curvaceous form and soft, neutral colorways create a chair that’s both soothing to look at and cozy to perch in. Wayfair’s speedy delivery means you’ll have it sooner rather than later too.

Bozzi Sheepskin Accent Chair

For maximum cozy vibes, curl up in this fuzzy number from CB2, a favorite of interior designer Jenerra Albert of the Jax Group: “We typically find that, for wingback chairs, we always have to sacrifice comfort in either posture or softness of the seat,” she says. “This chair is great because we get lots of coziness and the drama of the height of the chair all in one.”

Cirque Swivel Chair

Comfy, affordable, and easily machine washable, Levity’s seat will suit just about any home and lifestyle. Available in a wide range of neutral hues and in a swivel or stationary variation, it’s a piece that can fit in a living room, bedroom, or lounge.
