We purchased 2 Varnado Armchairs for our front sitting/piano room - not only are they super comfy (we do use a lumbar pillow as well) but they work for our tallest friends (including my 6'7" husband).  Additionally a year later - our senior bulldog uses one of them as her favorite perch - and you can't see a mark in the seating from her jumping up on it.  Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a slick mid-century type vibe that isn't over kitschy.
