"If it is the right chair,it doesn't take too long to be comfortable in it,".....Robert De Nero.
Being a book lover,I very soon bagged the deep seated chair as my own . Sitting in a sunny corner in my bedroom it is the perfect spot for me to curl up and get my nose into a book.
And then there is the old rocking chair in my parents house ,to which I have seen the old and young flock whenever they visit. The kids rock it like a swing.Young mothers rock their baby to sleep there.And I just relax and let the memories take over.
The green chairs in the picture are a testimony to the gardener's expertise but I doubt if they will be comfortable to sit on. Unless it's a tea party for the crows and mice that I saw in the garden.

What a lovely memory. There is something so soothing about the mental picture you draw.

My first thought when I saw those green chairs was are they sturdy. If one sits in them will they fall apart? For me I have a comfortable chair I bring into the bedroom to sit in and have a foot stool to put my feet up on in the winter and in summer or nice weather I sit out on my swing chair on the porch.

I see but they still look like they would fall apart if anyone misttook them for chairs and tried sitting on them. I love my swing chair and it is really fun to sit on.

Very imaginative those chairs in that garden.
I have my favourite corner overlooking our garden where I like to reminisce.

I think the dining table and chairs are for show more of an exhibit type of garden. Great handy work by gardener! I prefer a comfy and cool chair like a rocker to sit in. I love leather chair and sofas too.

Comfortable chairs are hard to come by. When I find one, I grab it. I'm glad you have a comfortable one you can curl up in and read. My parents had a comfortable chair while I was growing up. It used to belong to my maternal grandparents. It was a wider chair, hard vinal. It wouldn't seem comfortable, but once I sat in it, I didn't want to get out of it. I'd grab a book, throw my legs over the sides and read by the hour. I could get lost in time in a chair like that. I haven't found one like it since.

Chairs for reading should be deep. I can picture you with your legs over the side and reading
