Know before you buy
Yes, the chair is engineered with a platform swivel base that allows you to glide back and forth while simultaneously rotating 360 degrees.
The chair has a total width of 28 inches and a total height of 44 inches. Because it features a swivel and glide mechanism, it is best to ensure you have a few extra inches of clearance on all sides to allow for full range of motion.
The arms are crafted from solid hardwood, providing a sturdy, structured feel. While they offer excellent support for getting in and out of the chair, you may want to consider a throw pillow if you prefer a softer surface for your elbows.
The wood species vary primarily in grain pattern, hardness, and how they accept stain. For example, Oak and Quarter Sawn White Oak offer prominent, distinct grain textures, while Brown Maple and Cherry provide a smoother, more uniform appearance.
Because you can choose from a wide array of fabrics and leathers, the durability depends on the specific material you select. We recommend choosing performance fabrics or top-grain leathers if the chair will be placed in a high-traffic area like a nursery or family room.
The chair is Amish handcrafted and typically arrives fully assembled or with minimal, straightforward attachment required for the base. Please check your delivery documentation for specific instructions upon arrival.
