Chairs are how a room stops looking like a furniture set. Seldens carries them from Mercana, Stickley, Ekornes, Jonathan Louis and Flexsteel. The fastest way through is to pick a type: recliners, swivel chairs or leather chairs.

Start With How You Want to Sit

A chair you will read in for an hour is a different animal from one that mostly holds a throw. If it is for real sitting, look at frames that support the back through a range of positions, including the ones in our Stressless dine and recline collection and the Fjords collection. If it is occasional seating that also has to look good, a fabric accent chair lets you use pattern you would never risk on a sofa.

Frames You Can Specify, and Where to Put Them

Jonathan Louis chairs and Thayer Coggin frames are built to order, so the cover is your decision rather than whatever a warehouse happens to hold. Two matching chairs almost always look more deliberate than one, and a pair opposite the sofa closes a conversation circle that a single chair leaves open. Leave a chair its own light and its own surface, or it will never get used.

With this many frames, the showroom is a shortcut. Five minutes of sitting narrows the range to three chairs, because seat height and arm position either suit your body or they do not.
