What is a long couch called?
1 Answer
A long couch is also called a chaise longue (in the United States, it is also spelled “chaise lounge”). The chaise longue is an upholstered piece of furniture that was made popular in France in the early 16th century. This low reclining seat — a “long chair” in English — boasts an elongated form and low back that extends about half the length of the furnishing, affording the welcome opportunity for a sitter to put their feet up and relax. It is now a decorative piece of furniture in most of the houses used indoors and outdoors. Find a collection of chaise longues on 1stDibs today.
