Features:
• Solid Mahogany Construction
The chair is made from richly toned mahogany, with a deep reddish-brown patina that reflects decades of use. The slatted backrest and contoured seat are shaped for ergonomic comfort.
• Adjustable Height with Tilt-Back Function
The chair’s height is adjustable via a threaded cast iron mechanism at the base, and it features a working tilt-back function—a highly desirable feature in period office chairs.
• Cast Iron Swivel Base
The four-leg base features a robust cast iron swivel system with original hardware and vintage wood casters. It’s functional and smooth-rolling.
• Numbered Oval Metal Plate – #2589
A small oval tag on the back reads “2589” and is mounted over what appears to be the original maker’s label.

Condition Notes:
• The wood shows normal surface wear and aging consistent with its 130+ years of life, including minor nicks, dings, and finish rubs.
• One leg has a tiny chip at the bottom edge—see photos.
• There is a number plate firmly affixed, though it partially covers the original manufacturer’s label.
• Rolling Casters seem original and work well but not perfectly.
• There is some finish wear and rubbing, but adds to the authentic antique patina.

This is a beautifully crafted ergonomic antique office chair that blends function and elegance. Ready to use and enjoy!!
