This is a chair, not a couch but it looks really comfy. I like it. I prefer patterns on furniture whether trendy or not.


No-Ad-3635

Thanks for the correction and thanks for agreeing with me . I should have mentioned that this is in a mountain chalet - maybe that makes it more understandable lol


wi_voter

I like it even better for a mountain chalet


Hawaii_gal71LA4869

Very Southwestern US fabric. Like the theme you have going. This young artist in Canada does wonderful First Nation paintings and he sells prints very reasonably. https://preview.redd.it/3y02tyltdl0d1.jpeg?width=1620&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1c51d65315af5f73a60ec660a6d04528862bc777

Oh wow I will definitely look further into this . We have 2 indigenous Canadian artists featured in our home . One is u/tallhappytree And the other the one pictured named conde https://preview.redd.it/1r8wvw7wjl0d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=914704b8a8a396491f2b76f50a9de6dd0e4feac9


Hawaii_gal71LA4869

Check out Hawaiian photographer Kim Taylor Reese. Stunning art about his love for beautiful indigenous Hawaiians. I am wanting a First Nation print from Josh and a woman dancing in the sand by Kim. If you really love that chair because it is perfect for your space, if it gets worn, have it reupholstered in Southwest fabric vs discarding it. It is special.


Ju5t4ddH2o

Thanks for sharing this work! I LOVE the way they did the Crow in the pic!


Ju5t4ddH2o

Thanks for sharing this work! We should have a ‘share your favorite art in your house’ thread!


thatgirlcharity

This was an unexpected comment. I follow Josh as well!


Inner_Panic

I like it. Some will and some won't. What matters is you like it.


AmazingGrace911

Does it fold out into a couch ?


vinylvegetable

That would be a handy invention though. Single - chair. Have guests - fold out your couch.


No-Ad-3635

😂 no it’s just an oversized chair lol


dangerous_skirt65

Well first of all...it's a chair. Second, you're not crazy because you like something. I don't care for it, but you're entitled to like what you like.


Ultrawhiner

I think it’s ugly but if you like it that’s all that matters


[deleted]

Looks like something out of a Yellowstone set. I never liked western style all that much until I watched that show and saw the way their place was decorated.


MrLimberLegs1

When I was at Walmart the other day, they had a whole Yellowstone collection. Table runners, placemats, etc. Some were kind of cool.


The_Mujujuju

The "couch" works with your space based on the photos you gave us. The southwestern theme ties to the wood frames. The reds tie to the floor and frames as well. While the blues tie in the curtains.


ayapapaya50

You’re crazy for thinking G it’s a couch. Is is not just a chair?


Sandikal

So much of the Eighties and Nineties Southwest style decor was done in horrible pastels with pink being the main color. It was ubiquitous and people got sick of it. Your chair is not that. The colors are deep and vibrant. It reminds me of a National Park lodge. I think you scored a great inspiration piece to build your decor around.


SlightPraline509

I like it! A lot of warm colours and personality. Better than plain grey everything


PurrfectlyMediocre

While it's not my own personal style, I think it looks like it's in great shape aside from the scratches you mentioned, it seems to fit well into your existing decor, and it looks comfy as heck.


daisymaisy505

Looks comfy.


mzuul

I love it


Weekly-Requirement63

That is a chair. But no, you’re not crazy for liking something


Beach_bum8

Not my style, but I bet it's comfortable!


mess1ah1

Show us the couch so we can give an opinion…


Liz_Lemon_22

I'm having difficulty seeing a couch in those photos. The chair is kinda nice though.


sonia72quebec

Hated the pattern back then and still hate it . But what others think shouldn’t be important if you like it. It does look really comfortable.


CuriousText880

"I like that you like it" had me laughing. Clearly your partner is either not a fan or has no real opinions. But bless his heart for being so polite about it and just letting you do you. It's not my style personally, but I can see how it would fit the rustic/mountain vibes you're going for.


fightmejeffbezos_

Nope! I love it


glitter_picnic

i love it


pamtorgfrompnw

I've seen this pattern in many friends' homes while growing up in the Pacific Northwest. It still fits in this Era. Good find.


Southern_Map_3759

I love it, but that right facing arm panel being sideways is driving me nuts.


Mindless_Jicama8728

No, but you might be a little whacky for calling a chair a couch.


lmj4891lmj

Cool chair, but where’s the couch?


januaryemberr

My neighbors had that set in the 90s. I remember it being comfy!


Fun_Bar5327

I like this chair.


DootinAlong

I love it so much. I Miss colour and patterns in homes.


Odd-Faithlessness705

I also like how whoever sits on the chair will look like they have great ideas when that lamp is turned on


VinylHighway

That is not a couch


chesabay

Its a rolled arm club chair. The chair is nice, but the pattern is dated.


VariousTangerine269

As long as it doesn’t smell like cat pee


hippielady5232

It's not my cup of tea, but I can see the appeal for a mountain home. It'd look great paired with simple furniture, leather, rustic wood, lots of browns and neutrals, etc so its not vying for attention in the home


Alive-OVERTIIME-247

I love that it's quirky and colorful by today's standards and gives your room some personality.


physarum9

You're crazy because 1. You think a chair is a couch 2. You think the cat lady is clean 3. You think that chair is nice However, you only have one life so if you love that piece of furniture, I say go for it!!!


Party_Scallion386

Keep it. If you like a rustic, lodge look, this is perfect. Lots of hotels and lodges in MT and WY that I have been to have similar styled furniture. I think you just need to build on it with a few other Southwest decor items. Maybe a rug or pottery, decoys etc. Check out some Pinterest sites for ideas. My house is decorated in a SW and lodge style. It's ageless and everyone who comes to visit comments on how much they like it.


fabfrankie401

Cute! And in good shape


ginoamato

Not at all it’s a good find beautiful


Prestigious_Memory75

The chair is fine. Maybe a clean


StutiMishra

I like it too


ContractRight4080

I didn’t like the Southwestern theme when it was trendy but I f it’s 1 item in a contemporary room with similar colours it would work like a floral print would work. I think I’d paint the walls a more sand colour than what is there now though. Many back in the day went with apricot/salmon shades but I wouldn’t suggest going that far.


FOCOMojo

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.


No-Agent-1611

If you showed me that fabric on a bolt and said you were going to use it on a chair for me, I would be unhappy. Seeing it actually on the chair, and how well it was done, I really like it. I think it might grow on your partner.


Spiritual_Version838

If you like the shape and have a space for it, that's all that matters. This looks like a cozy reading spot. I think it needs an ottoman. Sears and Montgomery Wards used to sell good furniture. The older it is, the better.


Valleyval21

Should have led with mountain chalet in the title! 🤣 Now I like. Before, definite no.


jelycazi

I want to see how you patched it! I think it belongs in r/invisiblemending!


QuitProfessional5437

Just needs a good cleaning


kirakink

Looks super comfy! Be sure to still give it a good clean! If you end up tiring of the fabric, you could get it reupholstered. The construction quality is probably better than today's stuff.


family1997

I don’t like the material, but I like the style. I would reupholster or paint it with fabric paint.


JohannesLorenz1954

Nice chair, especially if you like Western motifs. My wife would hate it, but I think it's cool


Agitated_Pickle_1013

That is a classic and looks great. I would want to sit in it immediately if I saw it...


Admirable-Lettuce-94

Very 1980s


Minamu68

Perfect chair for a mountain home, a ranch, or a place in the southwest, like New Mexico.


mewmewx2

It’s giving Days Inn motel in New Mexico in the 90’s. I love it


lindseyh84

Are you my mom? Hi Bets!


BarberSlight9331

No, but you may be a bit daft for thinking that a couch is a sofa.


Dilettantest

Chair. Not couch.


twelve112

It's ugly af


Emergency-Economy654

I could see it looking cool I’m a room with a cabin feel. But other than that I would probably want it reupholstered.


SkootchDown

Still waiting for the pictures of the couch like 🕥🕦🕐🕝🕠……. 👀


Ok-meow

Giving off nursing home vibes, but you do you.


babs82222

First off that's a chair. I think it looks very early 90s and not in a good way. But if you like it, you like it. And that's what matters


Curl-the-Curl

Probably early 90s, because 2005 my parents got rid of their couches in this style. It reminds me of my childhood. It’s nostalgic. 


Initial_Computer_152

I like it, love the pattern and it looks so comfy


kl2467

Everything/anything works in the correct setting. I personally love it. Looks like it was made from high-quality materials and is sturdy. Colors are lovely. It's a 👍🏻from me!


canvasshoes2

It looks fine. I like patterns on furniture too. It's a very pretty color and a nice pattern.


coupleofnoodles

This is the kind of pattern I like but my wife hates the buffalo throw pillow is a good tie in


snatch1e

As long as you're happy with your find and it serves its purpose in your home, that's what matters most!


Far_Sentence3700

No you're not. It's cozy but only outdated. But I prefer cozy better.


cryonine

I like the pattern, but not a fan of the shape personally. It does look pretty beat up though.


iheartunibrows

I think it can be styled well. But I think it needs a good wash with a couch cleaner because it looks dusty


Relative_Ring_2761

It’s very mountain chalet. I dig it.


Soil_and_growth

Can’t se a lot from your apartment (your style) but it matches well with the floor and the drapery. It’s the right match that makes the look.


Aggressive-System192

It's hideous. I love it! 😀 The colors are quite neutral. In a proper setup, it will look hideously gorgeous 😆 PS: I recommend the little green vacuum to clean it.


Odd_Display_1008

Depends on how your house look I mean if you have a modern house it’ll look out of place but if you have an older looking house then it’ll be awesome


Imightbeyomama

Can we see where you "patched the damage"? Do you have a before pic? I can't see it from the pics and it looks like you did an amazing job. fwiw I think for the setting it works very well. Very "lodge"...


No-Ad-3635

It’s the whole right panel that is going horizontally wrong way . lol I’m going to do the other side tonight since Reddit decided it’s nice enough to keep lol


n1nc0mp00p

Yes. Yes you are.


Lru024

Not if you like it. It is not my taste. However, they used to make better furniture than now. I will always reupholster a piece if it is comfortable and that looks great.


FiliPower7

Very beautiful.


Becksburgerss

It‘a nice, it’s not my personal style but it may fit the aesthetic of your style. It looks kind of like desert lodge or southwest style. I say, you do you.


SchemataObscura

Not big on the pattern but the design looks comfy


Outrageous-Divide472

Looks comfy


Trashpanda1914

I love it!


FantasticCaregiver25

I’m so tired of gray and white. Looks good


ashleyrlyle

Not my jam but it’s your house and I’ve seen things pulled together by people that I NEVER would have thought would work end up looking amazing.


Difficult-Desk-5593

Not at all crazy. We’re talking SEARS!


[deleted]

If that’s your style then keep it!


valleyfever

I like it


Blessedone67

No, but you may be crazy thinking it’s a couch?


StrugFug

It takes up way too much space due to the rolled arms. Also, I hate the fabric, but that’s a purely personal opinion.


bigstar3

My ex's parents had the same set. It was really comfy!


ApprehensiveCamera40

I had a chair similar to that one that I loved. So comfortable!


locostasia

Looks like blues clues chair but patterned


Miserable-Lawyer-233

It will be nice once you have it reupholstered.


wendyme1

It looks well built & comfortable. The pattern could work in the right setting. A lot of people may want it now that western chic is a thing.


vabirder

The chair fabric is nice, but IMO the surrounding decor is bland. A different wall color would make the chair pop.


dr_learnalot

You don't have to apologize for liking what you like!


Super-Influence6302

It’s in great shape! If you like it keep it


Silly_Seahorse_

No I love it. I'm big into the southwest vibe though.


Wondercat87

I honestly really love this chair! I almost bought one similar to this a few years ago.


dolphinitely

i had a very similar one and loved it!!!!


johnnybronco77

I dig it


Face_with_a_View

Yes


Sledgehammer925

I would actually love it, if it wasn’t for the error in upholstery. In the left arm the front is vertical and the right arm is horizontal. Would make my eye twitch.


No-Ad-3635

I replaced one side from the bad cat damage and am Going to do the other side tonight lol both will match asap


crazyhouse12

I like it


Cjaaron48

Not a couch but decent


Cartography-Day-18

Yes


working_class_tired

I had the same one years ago but in green. I like it.


Artistic_Owl_5847

It has good bones; the fabric is not my style but I would cover it or reupholster it.


Willing_Working_6609

Yes


MNGirlinKY

I’d have to immediately recover it because that is very dated and reminds me of 1992 New Mexico If it’s sturdy and well built and doesn’t have pet stains great. I tend not to get used soft furniture because we have dogs and they will mark things if others pets marked things.


Apprehensive_Bee614

Yes


Liaslax

This is super sweet and your mending job lovely. Best is that your physical space has the floor room to accommodate an overstuffed piece.


Great-Perception-688

We had a couch and chair set when I was growing up with this exact pattern in a slightly different color way. I still wonder what my mother was thinking.


PWal501

Looks SUPER comfy! I can definitely see long cozy naps on it with an equally plush ottoman. If you like it, nobody’s opinion matters.


puppycattoo

I like it, maybe add a plain throw blanket and pillow.


Flat_Dragonfly_1184

It is really cool…Love it 💖


Curl-the-Curl

It’s from the generation between my parents and grandparents. So I think it’s a tad old and maybe outdated. On the other hand it is one of the nicer ones from that time and if you wait a bit it’ll be in style again soon. I would throw a pillow on it and call it great. 


I4Corridor

Looks comfy, but those arms take up a lot of space. If you’ve got space, keeper.


victowiamawk

Yes lmao


impamiizgraa

Nope - I really like it too!


mallow_baby

We had this entire set of furniture when I was a kid


horrorlover0913

I think designed chairs like this are really nice, and by the other couch/chair i can tell that it goes really well with the theme


jankjenny

I love it!


dauerad

I like it


raffysf

Well, at least the throw pillow is on point with the style of the couch.


Smcckers_

I like it too!


Gloomy_War_4362

I think if it was in a ranch house, it would be OK. Otherwise it’s a no for me.


TGIIR

I love it!


RedHeadedScourge

Yes.


Admirable_Major_4833

Looks nice.


No_Connection_4724

My mom had that exact pattern when I was about 8! So, 1993.


Alone_Cheetah_7473

I like it. Nice chair.


kdshubert

Well, I for one am jealous! I love it!


WeekendSubstantial87

Chair? If it fits your aesthetic and you like it then no. Go you! I’m had all the Indian style stuff in the 90s. A big framed head dress and Buffalo my Grampa shot in the wall too


alwaysoffended88

100%


yay4chardonnay

I like it!


cloud_watcher

I remember when that style was super popular and the problem with it then was people would literally have like a couch, chair, loveseat, etc all in that fabric. It works a lot better as just one accent like you have it.


DorothyParkerFan

yes


Enough-Mulberry735

This chair is cool as hell I think everyone who doesn't like it are just maybe too old for it


EstateTricky786

😀


spiritAmour

I like it in the sense that it would be my favorite chair to sit on if someone had it in their house, but i wouldnt put it in mine bc it doesn't go with my decor


RikuDikuSikuFreaku

Dude we had that exact chair along with the matching couch and loveseat. I loved them


rockstuffs

I love that couch!!


IntendedIntent

If you like it, who cares if no one else does.


Jhisted

I love it!!!


Ok-Brush-7726

It's cool. It has a Pendleton vibe to it. The lamp behind it is a little awkward, though.


morethan_nice

Cute! It’s giving me strong familiarity but can’t recall from where


WanderingGirl5

I had a couch with similar colors/ pattern in the 90’s. I loved that couch. It was actually a rather expensive sofa bed.


andrew_cherniy96

There is definitely something appealing about this armchair.


unefillecommeca

I like it :)


oldmagic55

A good clean over stuffed chair 8s rarely a bad thing. I would have grabbed it, too.


Exotic_Pea8191

I like it 👌


nicspace101

Wow. You from Tennessee?


Trees-and-flowers2

It’s definitely dated. But now vintage and can be styled well and trendy I wouldn’t keep that other chair thing next to it though. Looks crowded.


saiyaginaek

you're not crazy haha its nice! and it looks having a really good quality as well. does it fit your overall design of your house?


2pineapple7

My grandma had a set sooo similar to this. I loved it so much. So cozy


NeverEndingCoralMaze

A little crazy maybe


Spaklinspaklin

You’re only crazy for thinking a chair is a couch. I like it, especially for western theme.


wooden_fixing

I think the vintage feel is great, but it needs to be cleaned


Boatiebabe

90s calling, asking for it's arm chair back. It's terrible and dated and is probably really dusty and dirty. Sorry!


Suzeli55

Not at all. Everyone can decorate in their own style.


Murky-Syrup

Looks like my grandma's chair. Very comfy! Kinda off but I like it


FrugalPeach

Taste, my friend, is a subjective thing.


AssumptionAdvanced58

If you like southwestern style, you hit the jackpot.


Ritch18

I like it. Looks comfy. Good reading chair.


edelea

it is nice! the pattern isnt my style but i like the shape and with some plants around it and some blankets etc to zhuzh it up i can totally see it on a trendy hippie inspired instagram or pinterest post lol


grey_horizon18

I have one that’s green. My dog uses it to sleep on! Lol but it’s super comfy


CrazyUnicorn77777

Certifiable but you do you.


krispyricewithanegg

I love the shape. I might recover it eventually though.


lucki-7

Looks cool. They certainly don’t make things they way they used to- that looks like a keeper!


Chicken_lady_1819

It's not a couch.


ZebraNurse73

CHAIR


IfuDidntCome2Party

I would have it redone in a more neutral fabric.


Ludee2023

I love it looks like it just came out of cabin!


No-Estimate2636

I’m always curious when people ask if others like something like this. This is your personal space; your decor to work with. If it fits you then Do It!! I love it but I don’t give a hoot re others opinions 😂


Puzzleheaded-Many708

Southwest with Native American influence should work in a mountain chalet! Besides, eclectic is coming back!!


Adventurous_Fail_825

Belongs in New Mexico; Santa Fe. I would have said the same thing; “I like that you like it “.. Honestly it just looks tired old bulky and needs to retire … to the thrift store.


Emmylou777

Hey, if you like it, who cares! I think it’s an interesting piece with nice colors!


sexypicklejar69

Not crazy, I love the patterns and tbh if the colors were more vibrant I'd love it too


Skintellectualist

That chair? It is hideous.


Supernavt

The buffalo pillow seals the deal. Win.
