The pinnacle of our upholstery range, the Idler is a beautifully versatile love seat design inspired by an Edwardian sofa that Nix has in her own kitchen. The perfect combination of style, comfort, and durability, the beauty of the Idler lies in its refreshingly simple silhouette that allows it to be dressed up or down to suit a wide range of settings, from the kitchen to the drawing room.
Made by skilled craftspeople at our maker in Derbyshire, its effortlessly refined appearance belies the sturdy construction within, including a handcrafted beech frame and bespoke coil-sprung mesh-top seats that you can sink into.

The Idler love seat is the perfect place for cuddling up and relaxing with your favourite human friend or furry companion. Characterised by gently curved arms, playful spherical feet and a deep, coil-sprung seat, the Idler love seat is the ultimate in luxurious comfort.
At NiX, quality and craftsmanship are at the heart of everything we do. Our made-to-order upholstery is proudly crafted in the UK by our partner that has been handmaking fine furniture for over 60 years. The Idler love seat's FSC-certified beech hardwood frame and solid oak feet are carefully joined and secured with a Lifetime Guarantee for complete peace of mind.
This product is upholstered in our soft but strong Laidback Linen fabric that brings a relaxed and informal feel to the interior. Crafted in Italy through a meticulous process of weaving, dyeing, and tumbling, our Laidback Linen works seamlessly with our Intelligent Velvet and NiX checks and stripes.
Seat cushions are carefully filled with a 50:50 mix of Spanish Barbary duck feathers – a by-product of the meat industry – and Quallofil Blue, a recycled fibre. The result is a cushion that you can sink into yet keeps its shape, eliminating the need for frequent plumping. Fabric covers are expertly stitched and every component is individually upholstered to be well-used and well-loved for years to come.
