Description
Sitting in this buttoned armchair is like receiving a whopping great big hug from a bear*. That's how comfy it is. (*A teddy bear. Not a real bear. That would be lethal.)
Our Stylist Says
I love the Reader armchair for its timeless, cosy charm and versatile design. Its classic tufted back and wooden legs lend a traditional touch, making it ideal for adding character to living rooms, reading nooks, or even a bedroom corner. The bright green upholstery introduces colour without overwhelming, making it a great accent piece in neutral or patterned settings. To style it effectively, consider pairing with layered textiles like throws or cushions in complementary tones, or position it alongside other vintage-inspired furnishings for a cohesive look. Its inviting form also encourages use as a comfortable spot for reading or relaxing, making it both practical and charming in various interior schemes.

About Loaf
Founded in 2008, Loaf are a beloved brand dedicated to creating laid-back and comfortable furniture for a relaxed living experience that exude comfort and quality.
Loaf is a popular British furniture store that started as "The Sleep Room" by Charlie Marshall in 2008. Charlie used money from selling his old business and his savings to start it.
At first, they just sold beds, with Charlie researching 187 mattress and bed factories to ensure only the best products. But by 2012, they began selling other furniture like sofas, chairs, and lights, which led to its rebranding as "Loaf."
Their growth was so impressive that by 2013, they ranked 40th on the Sunday Times Fast Track 100, becoming the 3rd fastest growing retailer in the UK.
Loaf's commitment to the environment and ethical practices is evident in their efforts to ensure sustainable sourcing. They aim for all their materials to be responsibly sourced or derived from recycled materials by 2025.
For instance, the timber in their sofa frames comes from responsibly managed forests. Additionally, they're working towards reducing their carbon emissions, improving packaging to be 100% recyclable, and respecting animal welfare.
Notably, their wool will be certified to the Responsible Wool Standard by 2023. Loaf also ensures that all their employees, or 'Loafers,' are paid at least the 'real' Living Wage.
Presently, Loaf boasts ten showrooms, uniquely referred to as 'slowrooms,' mainly around London. Beyond just business, they're active in community engagement.
They have partnered with St Mungo's, a leading UK charity, aiming to spend 10,000 hours over the next three years volunteering and raising funds to combat homelessness.
