Price History
Description
With its softly cushioned seat and stylish ribbed upholstery, the Ellis armchair is equal parts comfortable and eye-catching. Available in a range of gorgeous colours, the high-quality velvet feels utterly luxurious and gives the chair an impressively premium look. A slightly winged profile and splayed wooden legs touch upon traditional style, while the fluted stitching keeps it right on trend.
Our Stylist Says
I love this armchair because of its timeless design and inviting silhouette. The warm tan velvet adds a touch of sophistication while maintaining a cosy appeal. It works particularly well in vintage-inspired or mid-century interiors, but it also pairs nicely with modern or eclectic schemes. For styling tips, consider pairing it with a textured throw or a patterned cushion to add layers. Position it in a reading nook or beside a side table for an effortlessly chic look. Its sturdy wooden legs make it versatile enough to fit both contemporary and traditional settings, making it a great go-to piece to lift a lounge or bedroom corner.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
