Tub chair in living room

Hello!

I am getting a secondhand sofa for my living room for my living room from a family member. It is as good as new. They do not have a matching chair, so I am thinking about getting a tub chair. It will not exactly match.

The sofa I am getting is brown coloured leather along the bottom and edges and fabric on the rest. My living room is decorated in beige/brown.

Does anyone else have a tub chair in their living room? Would you recommend or not? Does it look ok?

    There are some lovely armchairs around, I would think they would be me comfortable than a tub chair. If your style is modern then ikea poang chairs are very good.

    I have a poang that I re - covered. Quite easy to do, you could even sew by hand if you don't have a sewing machine. I have an adult and a child poang and found the light coloured material got dirty / looked dull quickly.
    I must remember that "Money Saving" is not buying heavily discounted items that I do not need. :hello:
  • We have a dark brown leather Poang, very comfortable.
  • Thanks I will have a look at the Poang.
