What is the difference between a club chair and a wing chair?
1 Answer

Shape is the main difference between a club chair and a wing chair. Normally, a wing chair has a tall back that wraps inwards, making it look as if a pair of wings frames the chair. Club chairs tend to be lower, boxier and flanked by wide arms. On 1stDibs, find a diverse assortment of club chairs and wing chairs.
