Description

A 1920's, height adjustable, swivel, mahogany framed and leather upholstered desk armchair. This solid mahogany framed armchair features an ergonomically shaped back with broad and wide curved top rail with attractive figuring, over sculpted slender slats. The upholstered burgundy coloured leather hide seat is trimmed with brass tacks. The seat is supported by the height adjustable, tilting and swivelling, patented mechanism.

The mechanism has been fully serviced and works well, with all aspects functioning.
