Single Barcelona Lounge Chair Replica Without Ottoman

Shop the Barcelona Single Chair by Colour

All six chairs are the same build and the same size, so the only choice on this page is colour. A Barcelona accent chair usually looks best when it contrasts with the sofa beside it, in colour or in material.

• Chocolate brown is one of our most-ordered single chairs. It sits well beside a grey or beige fabric sofa and hides everyday marks.
• Black gives the sharpest outline against pale walls, which suits a study or an office.
• Tan cognac is the contrast piece for a dark sofa in navy or charcoal.
• Cream is for tonal rooms, where the chair should blend with a light sofa.
• Dark grey works beside a brown leather sofa, where a second brown would clash.
• Red is usually stronger as one chair than as a pair.

Pale leather needs wiping more often than dark. Our guide on how to clean a Barcelona chair covers the leather and the steel frame.

How to Choose a Barcelona Armchair for Your Room

Decide how you will sit in it

The back angle is fixed and your feet stay on the floor. That makes the single chair a seat for sitting up with a book or talking to guests, in spells of an hour or two.

If you want to stretch out most evenings, the chair alone will feel unfinished. Look at our Barcelona chair with ottoman sets instead, or read is the Barcelona chair comfortable first.

Check the seat height and the missing arms

Our seat is 46 cm from the floor, close to the height of a dining chair. Although it is often listed as a Barcelona armchair, the design has no arms, so you stand up using your legs.

Most people find that easy. If you have stiff knees or hips, factor it in before you order.

Measure the floor and the doorway

The chair measures 77 × 78 × 83 cm (W × D × H) and weighs 19 kg. Leave about 80 cm of clear walkway on the side people pass.

The steel frame is one welded piece and cannot be taken apart. The chair arrives in a box of 78 × 77 × 77 cm, so you need a clear door opening of at least 77 cm. Every figure is on our Barcelona chair dimensions page.

We do not list a separate Barcelona chairs set of 2. For a pair, order two single chairs in the same colour, in the same order. Leather dye can vary slightly between production batches, so buying both together gives you the best chance of a close match.

Still weighing up the footstool? Our guide to the Barcelona chair with or without ottoman walks through both.

Who the Barcelona Style Lounge Chair Suits

Living rooms that need a second seat

Used as a Barcelona style accent chair, it gives you a seat beside or opposite the sofa. With no arms and an open frame, it looks lighter than a boxy upholstered armchair of the same width.

Small flats and reading corners

One chair angled into a corner, with a floor lamp behind it, needs about one square metre. Our guide to styling a Barcelona chair in a living room has more layout ideas.

Offices and reception areas

A pair suits a waiting area, because each chair seats one person upright for a short stay. The polished frame wipes clean with a soft, dry cloth.

Who should look elsewhere

If you want to recline, or you rely on armrests to stand up, this is the wrong chair. Our Eames lounge chair replicas are reclined and have armrests.

Why Buy a Barcelona Armchair Replica from Sederica

We publish our own measurements, not the original’s. Our chair is slightly larger than the figures published for the licensed original, most noticeably 6 cm taller, and we would rather you knew that before it arrives.

We are equally plain about materials. The faces you sit on are Italian leather, and the cushion sides and backs are a matching faux leather.

Delivery is free across the EU, the UK, Norway and Switzerland by tracked DPD, usually in 4 to 7 working days, with VAT and duties included. Our delivery areas page lists every country.

Set-up takes 10 to 15 minutes with no tools. The frame arrives in one piece and the two cushions fasten with leather straps, as our assembly guide shows.

Each chair carries a written 2-year warranty, and you have 14 days to return it. Unsure about a doorway or a colour? Email hello@sederica.com and we reply within 24 to 48 hours.

These are independent reproductions inspired by the Mies van der Rohe lounge chair, designed with Lilly Reich in 1929, and we sell them as such. More on both designers is on our Mies van der Rohe page.

Barcelona Single Chair FAQs

Can I buy a Barcelona chair without ottoman or footstool?

Yes. Every listing on this page is the Barcelona chair only, with no footstool in the box. If you think you may want one later, buy the set from the start, so both pieces arrive in matching leather.

Does a Barcelona style armchair have arms?

No. The design is armless, and the seat runs the full width of the frame. It is often called an armchair in Europe, because the word covers any single lounge seat. If you need armrests to push up from, choose a different chair.

How do I order a pair of Barcelona chairs that match?

Order two single chairs in the same colour, in the same order. Both are the same model, so the frames and cushions line up side by side. Allow just over 2 metres of wall for two chairs with a 50 cm side table between them.

How high is the seat on your Barcelona lounge chair?

46 cm from the floor, on a chair that stands 83 cm high overall. Most people find it easy to stand up from, even without arms. If a low seat is a concern, compare that figure with a chair you already own before ordering.

Will a single Barcelona chair fit through my door?

It will if you have a clear opening of at least 77 cm. The chair arrives in a box of 78 × 77 × 77 cm that weighs 22 kg, and the welded frame cannot be folded or taken apart. Measure with the door fully open, then check any stair turns or lifts on the way in. Email us before ordering if it looks tight.

Is a Barcelona single seater right for an office or reception area?

Yes, for short waits and meetings. Each chair seats one person upright, and a pair with a low table makes a tidy waiting area. If the chairs are for business premises, read our warranty terms first or email us.

Choose Your Barcelona Lounge Chair

Pick one of the six colours above, or order two for a pair. If you cannot decide, chocolate brown is the safe place to start.
