The earliest record of plaid dates back to 1512 when Scottish Highlanders began wearing the pattern. I like to think of this armchair as the modern day equivalent of a 1500s Scottish kilt.
This handsome armchair proves that the line between traditional and contemporary is often hard to define. Its design is inspired by a chair that an Anthropologie buyer found at an antiques shop in West Sussex, England, but the look is anything but dated.

Charm. The use of plaid on this armchair by Anthropologie is anything but traditional. The pattern's large scale and more whimsical, mis-matched upholstery style create a piece that's both charming and modern.
