Bristol Swivel Chair – Brown

The Bristol Swivel Chair pairs a high wing back with a rounded, biscuit-tufted shell for a seat that feels made to sink into. Wrapped in brown leather with a lived-in, faintly weathered surface, it carries the warmth of a well-worn armchair while the panelled quilting gives the back and seat a structured look. The generous arms curve outward, framing a deep cushioned seat that holds its shape through long evenings.

Underneath, a black iron trumpet base lets the chair swivel a full turn, so you can angle towards conversation, a window or a screen without shifting the whole frame. The contrast between the soft brown upholstery and the dark metal foot keeps the proportions grounded and stops the tall back from feeling top-heavy. Foam padding over a plywood and pine frame supports the shape, giving the chair a firm but forgiving feel.

At 700mm wide and 925mm tall, it reads as a proper occasional chair rather than a slim accent piece. It suits a living room corner, a study reading nook or a bedroom seat, and the mid-century leaning silhouette works alongside both modern and more classic surroundings.

Does the chair swivel a full circle?

Yes. It sits on a black iron trumpet base that turns a full 360 degrees, letting you rotate the seat freely.

What is the upholstery made from?

The chair is covered in brown leather over foam padding, with a plywood and pine frame beneath.

How should I care for the leather?

Wipe with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth and keep it out of direct sunlight and away from radiators to protect the finish over time.

Is the back tall enough to support my head?

Yes. It has a high wing back with panelled tufting, so it offers support up to head height when you lean back.

Where does this chair work best?

It suits a living room corner, a study reading spot or a bedroom seating area where its size and swivel action can be enjoyed.
