Club Chairs have been around for hundreds of years, and have been a fashionable accessory to own since Victorian times. The name ‘Club Chair’ comes from the nineteenth century and harks back to gentlemen’s clubs situated in the West End of London.

The clubs were convenient places where men could relax in grand surroundings and get away from their female relations. Once there, they would sink into well-upholstered leather chairs and unwind with a drink and maybe a cigar, hence the Club Chair name.

Nowadays there are many styles of club chairs available, from the traditional and very distinguishing Chesterfield chairs, to the more modern looking minimalistic descendants offered by many of today’s high street retailers.
