Deep Buttoned Swivel Leather Desk Chair

1900 - 1920
Description

A handsome and substantial antique swivel desk chair of exceptional quality, raised on a finely crafted mahogany base with elegantly shaped and fluted legs terminating in brass castors.

The chair is upholstered in richly patinated tan leather, featuring deep buttoning throughout and decorative brass studwork that accentuates its classic design. The high-quality aged leather displays a warm colour and desirable wear consistent with age, adding considerable character and charm.

Further enhancing its appeal are the generously proportioned rolled arms and beautifully shaped, rolled back, providing both comfort and an impressive presence. The swivel mechanism operates as intended, and the chair is presented in good overall condition.

An excellent example of traditional craftsmanship, ideal for a study, library, office, or gentleman’s interior.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A Captains swivel desk chair is a traditional style of office seating featuring a curved backrest, padded armrests, and a revolving base, historically derived from nineteenth-century maritime and desk seating designs.

These chairs are constructed using solid hardwood frames, such as mahogany or oak, upholstered in dyed hide leather secured with deep buttoning and hand-tacked brass studding.

Authentic period pieces feature solid wood bases with cast-iron swivel mechanisms, genuine brass castors, hand-stitched leather work, and natural wear patterns on the seat and armrests.

A classic leather desk chair creates a focal point when paired with a minimalist oak desk, modern brass lighting, or neutral paint palettes in a dedicated home office.

Leather upholstery requires regular dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and periodic application of specialized leather balm to maintain flexibility and prevent cracking.
