Looking to add a touch of personality to your living room? Look no further than an accent chair. Not only can it tie together the overall aesthetic of the space, but it can also serve as a statement piece. So, what happens when you introduce a leather accent chair into the mix?
If you already have fabric furniture, you can add layers of texture and durability with a leather chair. Michelle MacLellan, an interior designer at La-Z-Boy, highlights the benefits of incorporating a leather accent chair, saying, “Leather lasts much longer than fabric, so if it’s a chair you’re using every day, it is definitely worth the investment.”
In this article, we will focus on our top-selling leather accent chairs at La-Z-Boy Ottawa, providing you with insight into which one might be perfect for your home.
