Not just as retro design, according to John Lewis, its new Leon armchair was actually developed from an original 1960s vintage piece.
The end result is a mix between a classic win chair and a mid-century design, offering a curved button back, slightly flared arms and angled, walnut-stained legs. All of that upholstered in a high-end velvet fabric.
All of that for £850 online.

A statement seat inspired by a bygone era – the Princess Alice wing chair at John Lewis.
Yes, essentially it's a classic wing chair, perfect for taking a nap in, should you fancy a lazy Sunday. The design also features an exaggerated flared back, 'delicate' little scrolled armrests and pale turned oak legs for support.
That bright colour is via its upholstery in Designer's Guild Varese velvet fabric in aubergine and if you want a matching stool…well, there's one of those too, but you'll have to pay extra. You can pick up the Princess Alice wing chair on its own for £1,200.
