Find a collection of antique and vintage reading chairs on 1stDibs today.

    A lounge chair is a type of recliner that is often accompanied by an ottoman as a footrest.

    Similar to recliners, there are many styles of lounge chairs.

    The difference between a lounge chair and an accent chair pertains to purpose. Typically, a lounge chair is wider and deeper than an accent chair and tends to have a thicker cushion.

On 1stDibs, shop a collection of living room chairs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023
