The club chair originated in the early 20th century, emerging during the Art Deco and Belle Époque periods. Initially designed for the exclusive gentlemen clubs and lounges, they were created to provide a comfortable and stylish seating option for the members of these clubs, who would gather to socialise, smoke cigars, and enjoy various forms of entertainment.

These chairs gained popularity due to their sumptuous cushioning and welcoming, enveloping design. Their rich upholstery provided the perfect sanctuary for relaxation, as they quickly became a symbol of sophistication and luxury. The upholstery in premium mohair fabric further enhances their comfort, whilst adding to the visual aesthetic. With gently rounded edges, the chairs have a stylish flow to them. This pair of club chair can give any space a distinct look thanks to the beautiful combination of the materials and colours, which allows them to stand out. The ample body is supported by a square tapered box-like base, providing sturdy grounding. Club chairs continue to be highly sought after by collectors and interior designers today; their timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship make them prized pieces of furniture that can add a touch of sophistication to any interior.

The Art Deco movement flourished in the early 20th century, transforming the way we perceive interior spaces. It was a modern art style that attempted to infuse functional objects with artistic touches. The movement is different from the fine arts, as the object has practical purpose or use beyond providing an interesting look. With this ideal in mind, these armchairs provide not only visual pleasure, but also great sitting comfort and functionality.‎
