Armchairs to buy now

Statement seat of the season is the armchair, elevated from a sitting-room staple to an indulgent purchase. The autumn’s top examples focus on texture rather than pattern. Plain velvet still reigns supreme, but open-weave linen is perennially popular for upholstery, corduroy is on its way back, and nubbly woven bouclé — meaning curly in French — is the season’s soft and fuzzy sensation.
