I’m looking for a cover for the head area of a leather recliner, to prevent damage to the leather.
But for the life of me, I can’t figure out a good search term.
Not “furniture covers”–because that gets me stuff to cover the whole chair, which I’m not looking for.
Suggestions?
Links?
Recliner headrest covers. Still returns 99% full chair covers.
Headrest covers (protectors) on Etsy
Try “antimacassar” as a starting point…
noun
a small covering, usually ornamental, placed on the backs and arms of upholstered furniture to prevent wear or soiling; a tidy.
edit - Darn you, Zeldar.
GREAT!
Found it!
Many 10Qs.
I was going to guess “doily,” but antimacassar is better.
If you mix antimacassar and macassar, does the Enterprise get new upholstery?

Ideally, no. Antimacassar and macassar are (were) expected to routinely intermingle, with the intent that the upholstery would avoid the need for replacement.
For that, you need a Shrubbery.
Or, a 1920s Style Death Ray.
BTW–item is on order.
There was a poem about Dr. Edward Anti-Teller whose chairs were equipped with a macassar: Edward Teller | In the Dark
Maccasar = hair goo.
Antimacassar ≅ antigreaser.
