The Sahara is a low, wide zebra accent chair upholstered in graphic chenille over a hardwood frame. The woven pattern gives a neutral living room a strong focal point, while the generous seat makes it useful as everyday seating rather than a decorative chair that is rarely used. Because the zebra effect is created through textured upholstery, it has more depth up close than a flat printed pattern.

One Sahara chair is enough for most rooms. Set it at a slight angle to a sofa or sectional to create a conversation area, or place it in a bedroom corner with a small table and reading lamp. Keep nearby upholstery mostly solid—velvet, linen, or wool—so the chair remains the room’s main pattern. Black, ivory, chocolate, natural oak, and warm metallics all work comfortably around it.

Before ordering, measure the intended floor area and the path through doorways, halls, and stairs. Vacuum the chenille gently with an upholstery attachment and address spills promptly according to the care guidance. The Sahara is part of The Dana’s living-room look, where it is styled as the graphic counterpoint to softer, quieter pieces.

About this piece

The Sahara Zebra Accent Chair: Zebra print accent chair

The Sahara is a zebra print accent chair in a graphic chenille weave on a hardwood frame. Low, wide and considerably more comfortable than a sculptural chair usually is, it is the piece that gives a quiet, neutral living room its edge. The pattern is woven rather than printed, so it holds up close and does not read costume. One chair is enough in most rooms; the graphic does the work that a whole gallery wall would otherwise have to.

How to style it

  • Use one, not a pair, and set it at an angle to the sofa rather than square to it.
  • Keep everything else in the room plain, solid velvet and undyed wool, so the weave stays the only pattern.
  • Add a small side table and a warm lamp so it works as an actual reading seat.

Perfect for

  • Neutral living rooms that need one bold note
  • Reading corners and bedroom seating
  • Contemporary and eclectic interiors
  • Small spaces where a second sofa will not fit
