1. A retro velvet wingback chair with stylish pleated detailing and tapered gold legs that’ll have people thinking you snagged it from a luxury design studio.

Promising review: “As with anything ordered online, I was skeptical. But these look exactly like the photo. I have a cat who likes to use my upholstery to sharpen her claws. I figured if she does that to this chair, at least it would blend in since they’re fuzzy. I’m super happy with it.” –kld311

And while it’s sleek on its own, you can always dress it up with some cool throw pillows or cozy blankets!
Promising review: “Didn’t think I would like this chair. We bought it for an AirBnB and dang it – now I want one for our home. It’s super comfy! My wife says it needs a place to lean your head back but otherwise it’s great. Assembly was easy; we did struggle a bit getting things to lock in place, though. It’s a great chair to sit back in and read, and that’s saying a lot because I don’t read books but now I’m thinking I might start. Haha” –V. Harris

I was able to anchor into stud using hardware from Lowe’s and is a great addition to the corner!
