Linen gives this high-back seat a softer, more textile look than the leather crowd, and the weave stays breathable through a long afternoon. High-density sponge sits behind it, thick enough that the tufted panels keep their shape. The backrest tilts across a 108 to 125 degree range, and overall height adjusts between 43 and 46.5 inches from a lever within arm's reach. Padded armrests flip up when you want to sit sideways or push the chair fully under a desk, then drop back down for typing. A load rating of 400 lbs comes from the reinforced base, and the curved silhouette suits a dining nook as readily as a study. Assembled the chair occupies 30 by 28 inches of floor and weighs 37 lbs.
