A great leather armchair seems like the kind of thing that’s easier to inherit than to find new on the market. When looking for that perfect, deep-seated club chair, we turn to the English, who put the same care into leather seating as they would a Savile Row suit. Here are our favorite English and English-inspired armchairs (roll arms and tufted leather optional).
Above: Soho Home’s Podge Armchair is the same traditional leather chair found at the edge of beds in Soho House Chicago. It’s made by George Smith for Soho Home; £2,195 ($2,940). Above: The English Roll Arm Leather Chair is relaxed, oversized, and comes with loose cushions. It comes in a range of leathers and colors at Restoration Hardware for $2,195 to $3,595. Above: From London’s Christopher Howe, the Club Armchair is made of hand-stitched horsehair and down-filled cushions. Contact Howe for pricing and more information.

Above: The Jayson Home Dubose Chair has a design inspired by vintage French club chairs. It’s upholstered in antiqued leather with mahogany wood finish; $2,195 at Jayson Home.
