How do I adjust the height?

Many vintage swivel seats utilise a threaded central spindle mechanism operated by turning the seat itself. This raises or lowers the wooden platform relative to the base.

Are these chairs suitable for daily desk use?

Most of these pieces were originally built for offices, studies, or workshops, making them well-suited for modern desk work. Their robust timber frames and swiveling bases provide practical daily functionality.

What is the difference between a desk chair and a piano stool?

Desk chairs typically include backrests and arm supports designed for seated task work over longer periods. Piano stools often feature simpler padded or wooden revolving tops without backs, intended for short-duration seating at a keyboard.

How do I care for the leather and wood?

Wood surfaces benefit from occasional polishing with traditional wax to maintain the finish and nourish the grain. Leather seats require gentle cleaning and conditioning to prevent drying out over time.
