When furnishing your living room, adding a pop of colour can be a delightful touch. Whether you opt for a small item like a pillow or a blanket is entirely up to your preference.
However, there are times when individuals seek to make a bold statement in a room, opting for a larger piece to accentuate a specific colour. We refer to these as accent chairs. These chairs serve to emphasize particular colours, textures, or patterns in a space, creating a look that's uniquely tailored to your home.
An accent chair can be strategically placed in a corner next to a larger furniture piece, complementing its frame. Alternatively, it can command attention with the addition of a swivel base or a matching ottoman.
This is precisely what the Maeve achieves in its various iterations. Available as a stationary chair, a swivel gliding chair, or even a storage ottoman, the Maeve offers versatility to suit your needs. At La-Z-Boy, our furniture stores in Ottawa and Kingston feature a wide array of accent chairs, including the Maeve.
Now, what sets the Maeve apart from other furniture frames? This article will dive into the unique features of the Maeve and why it might be the perfect choice for you.

Unique Features
Starting with the unique features of this accent chair the Maeve has a lot to offer.
While this newer frame hasn't been in the showroom too long, the Maeve has done a great job at catching people’s attention, and in a stylish way at that!
Featuring a sleek barrel-style design and mod flair, the Maeve is built on a smaller scale but makes its presence known. Modern and casual in style, the Maeve also has a sleek and sophisticated curved back that is complimented by a pillowy loose back cushion.
It also features fine topstitching, which is perfect for anyone looking for unique detailing on their frame. What’s more, the track arms, welt trim and wood legs give it an even more chic look!
As mentioned before, the Maeve is not only available as a stationary accent piece, but also a swivel gliding chair, which can swivel a full 360 degrees, but also a storage ottoman, which can work as an extra seat or as a footrest.
Sizes & Dimensions
Taking a look at the sizing of the Maeve, there are certain things to consider before purchasing this type of accent chair.
This chair is considered small in size, making it perfect for anyone looking for an accent chair for a small space. This means it can work in an apartment building or the corner of a room, not taking up too much space.
In addition to its stylish design, the Maeve is a versatile chair that can accommodate a range of body sizes. Its normal height scale ensures comfortable seating for individuals between 5'4" and under in height. The shorter height is due to its short back and becomes even shorter on the swivel gliding chair.
While your height can be a considerable factor, it is important to note that height guidelines are NOT set in stone. The way you sit in a furniture item can drastically affect how someone might find a seat comfortable.
Ultimately, we always recommend coming in for a sit test to see if the Maeve is comfortable for your body type. To learn more, take a look at How to Find a Recliner That is The Best Fit For You.

Is the Maeve High-Leg recliner Right For You?
Now that you’re aware of what the Maeve has to offer, is this the right accent chair for you? To help you out with your decision, let’s take a look at your budget, the functionality and the style of the furniture frame.
Firstly, the Maeve falls within what is considered the more affordable price range for accent chairs at La-Z-Boy. It isn’t considered too expensive because it has a smaller frame, making it have fewer materials in the construction overall.
However, it is important to note that La-Z-Boy furniture is considered expensive compared to other furniture stores in Ottawa and Kingston.
Despite this, La-Z-Boy stands out for its commitment to durability, thanks to the quality materials used in its construction. This emphasis on quality translates to longer-lasting pieces compared to many others on the market. As a result, investing in La-Z-Boy furniture not only ensures a higher initial quality but also reduces the risk of frequent damage or wear over time.
Secondly, the Maeve is a great space-saving piece of furniture if you’re looking for something that is stylish and doesn't take up too much room. If you don’t have too much room, the stationary accent chair can look great in the corner and still have quite the presence.
However, you might need more space if you decide to opt for the swivel gliding chair or add the storage ottoman. Swivel chairs naturally need more space due to its 360-degree function.
With the ottoman, you could argue that you could use it as a replacement for a coffee table, but this also comes with pros and cons. To learn more about the comparison between an Ottoman vs. a Coffee Table, take a look at this article.
Lastly, the Maeve is modern in style, being able to stand out from other furniture styles pretty easily. It also looks great as a leather piece, or can even look great with the right fabric covering.
Some may even argue that this accent piece could work well in mid-century modern styles. To learn more about Mid-Century Modern Furniture take a look at this article.
