Fireside Chairs FAQs

Look for seat depth (40–50cm for comfort), upholstery durability (leather or performance fabric for heat resistance), and arm height relative to your body. Check weight capacity and whether the frame is hardwood. Ensure it fits your fireplace viewing distance—typically 1.5–2 metres away.

Measure your space width and depth. Standard fireside chairs are 75–90cm wide and 85–100cm deep. Leave at least 60cm clearance from the fireplace for safety. For smaller lounges, look for compact wingback styles under 80cm wide that fit snugly in corners.

Fireside chairs are specifically designed for heat exposure with high backs and enclosed sides for warmth retention. Wingback chairs are broader lounge furniture with decorative wing panels but arent necessarily heat-resistant. Fireside chairs typically use heat-safe fabrics; wingbacks offer more stylistic variety.

Leather and leather-look are ideal—they resist heat and clean easily. Performance fabrics like microsuede offer durability and stain resistance. Avoid loose weave linens near active fires. Check fabric composition; synthetic blends (polyester-cotton) are more fire-resistant than pure natural fibres.

Place it 1.5–2 metres from the fireplace as a focal point. Pair with a matching footstool or side table for functionality. Add throws and cushions in complementary colours. Position near a window or lamp for reading. Ensure it anchors the room without blocking sightlines to the fireplace.

Fireside Chairs buying guide

Fireside Chairs are a traditional armchair choice for a living room, snug or reading corner where upright support and a neat footprint matter. This selection focuses on classic designs, mainly from the Annaghmore Lisbon and Faro ranges, with a mix of mid-century and modern touches that keep the look easy to place in older and more contemporary homes.

In this category, most pieces are upholstered in fabric, with some faux leather options and some designs featuring visible wood details. Grey is the most common colour, with softer neutral shades such as taupe, beige, brown, latte and natural also appearing, so it is straightforward to match these chairs with calm decorating schemes or timber furniture already in the room.

Fireside Chairs materials and finishes

These Fireside Chairs are all assembled, which is useful if you want to avoid building the chair yourself, but it also makes measuring access especially important before ordering. Across the current range, widths run from 69cm to 84cm, depth from 69cm to 84cm, and height is consistently 109cm, so they suit spots where you want a higher-backed seat without taking up as much floor area as a larger lounge chair.

For planning, a narrower chair around the lower end of the width range can work well beside a fireplace, bay window or bookcase, while the broader options may feel more substantial in a main seating area. Because the chairs arrive assembled, check hallways, stair turns and door openings carefully, especially if you are choosing one of the deeper models.

If you prefer a softer, textured finish, browse Fabric Armchairs. If colour is your starting point, the most relevant alternative is Grey Armchairs. CFS also advertises free standard delivery, and finance options including a 50% deposit option may be available depending on the individual product and checkout details.
