The Rowan Brown Leather is scaled for sitters between 5’4″ and 5’9″ – 34 inches wide with flared arms that maximize seating space in a smaller footprint. The clean split-back design with welt trim reads more contemporary than the traditional pillow-back Jasper.
Brown leather has been the classic La-Z-Boy statement piece for decades – this Rowan version is a scaled-down modern take that fits smaller rooms where a full-scale Jasper would dominate. Rocker base at rest, manual side-handle recline, padded footrest that raises comfortably to leg height.
If you want the Rowan silhouette in lighter leather, the Rowan Cream Leather version is on our floor at the same time – same frame, different color.
Questions & Answers
What height range is the Rowan built for?
La-Z-Boy sizes the Rowan for sitters 5’4″ to 5’9″. Taller sitters may find the seat too shallow; consider an Astor or Joshua instead.
What is a split-back design?
The back cushion is divided into two sections rather than one continuous piece – a cleaner, more modern look than the traditional pillow back.
Is Brown leather the same as the Reed Walnut?
Both are brown leather. The Rowan Brown is slightly deeper and cooler; Reed Walnut is warmer with red undertones. Sit next to both if the color decision matters.
Does the Rowan rock?
Yes – rocker base at rest; side-handle manual recline. Standard La-Z-Boy rocker mechanism.
What is welt trim on the back?
A raised stitched cord that outlines the back cushion sections – a subtle detail that adds visual structure.
