Daisy Spider Leg Office Chair - Ebony Weave

The Daisy Spider Leg Office Chair in Ebony Weave is 67cm wide, 62cm deep and 81cm high, upholstered on a splayed four-leg base. The legs angle out from under the seat rather than dropping straight down. It suits a desk in a room that is not an office.

A desk chair in a bedroom or a living room has a problem that a desk chair in an office does not: it is in the room all the time, whether or not anyone is working. That is the case for a chair on legs rather than a pedestal and castors, and it is worth being clear about the trade before buying one.

What you get is a chair that looks like furniture and can be pulled up to a table when people come over. What you give up is height adjustment and the ability to swivel and roll.

The caveat follows from that. For a full working day at a screen, an adjustable chair is the right tool and this is not it. For a couple of hours at a desk in a room you also live in, it is.
