A wonderful antique oak swivel and reclining office chair, retaining its original leather upholstery, cast iron adjustment mechanism and period castors.
This handsome chair features a solid oak frame with sweeping arms, a curved backrest and beautifully aged leather seat and back panels finished with decorative brass studwork. The chair rotates freely and retains its original height-adjustment wheel marked W. A. Collins Ltd.
Believed to have originally belonged to the bank manager in Innerleithen, this is exactly the sort of substantial office chair that would have graced a bank, solicitor's office or civic building during the early twentieth century.
The chair displays a rich colour and patina developed through decades of use, with wear to the leather consistent with age and adding greatly to its character.
A superb decorative and functional piece, ideal for a study, home office, library or period interior.
Approximate measurements:
Width: 59cm
Height: 81cm
