20C Burgundy Executive Swivel Chair

About the Item

Presenting a lovely 20c burgundy executive swivel chair with beautiful detail. This chair was made in the mid to late 20th Century, but it is of extremely high quality. It is in the form of a Captain’s or Executive Swivel Chair. We are of the opinion that it was made in America by a top maker. They are covered in a leather style, burgundy color, vinyl. In near perfect working condition. It is a swivel and tilt chair, and the height can be adjusted. Made of walnut with gorgeous boxwood stringing on the armrest pillars and central support columns. Boxwood stringing and edging on the base of the seat. Comfortable curved back splat and it sits on 4 turned feet with ball castors. The leather style vinyl is secured all around with cabochon studs. A Captain’s Chair is a swivel and tilt chair with a curved back and central spindles. The origin of Captain’s Chairs is not fully known…but it is believe that they were originally designed and made for use by Sea Captains in their rooms for use with their desk. They were easily moved around without the needs to get out of the chair and therefore practically immune to the rise and fall of the ship on the Ocean. They became popular office chairs in the Early 20th Century. Mainly due to their comfort and ease of movement. Whilst relatively contemporary these are quality chairs. Perfect for your home or business office.
