armchair

Armchairs are a general term for chairs with backrests and armrests. Except for round-backed chairs and folding chairs, all others are called armchairs. Their styles and decorations range from simple to complex. They are often paired with coffee tables to form a set, with four chairs and two tables placed symmetrically on either side of the main hall. Examples include various genuine leather armchairs , fabric armchairs, and wooden armchairs produced by modern furniture manufacturers.

recliner

The recliner is one of the furniture pieces that emerged in the Qing Dynasty, showcasing new styles and functions. During the late feudal period in China, craftsmanship and techniques continuously improved, and people placed increasing emphasis on quality of life. Household items became increasingly categorized, and furniture, including new varieties like the recliner, was produced accordingly. Recliners also have many other names, such as "bedtime chair," "warm chair," and "relaxation chair," all referring to different styles of recliners. Modern recliners can be made from materials such as mahogany, bamboo, rattan, and aluminum alloy. A classic example of modern recliner furniture is the Eames recliner .

swivel chair

The upper part is not much different from the style of a regular chair, except that there is a swivel section under the seat called a "single-legged" chair, which allows the person sitting on it to turn left and right freely. The swivel chair is not a very early type of chair, and it is one of the earliest types of chairs in Chinese furniture to incorporate foreign styles.

rattan chair

Various chair frames are made of bamboo, while chairs are made by wrapping rattan around the frame. Correspondingly, there are varieties such as rattan armchairs, rattan round-back chairs, and rattan grand master chairs. Rattan chairs are both breathable and flexible. It is best to choose a chair with a backrest and place a footstool on it so that your legs can be flat and prevent lower limb ischemia.
