Leather Executive Chair

Leather is the only upholstery that ages upward: where fabric looks tired after a few years, good leather gains character — the patina on the armrests tells of use, not wear. A leather executive chair is therefore bought with a time horizon: ten years from now, it should speak of those years the right way, which is precisely what one asks of the chair at the head of the table.

But leather is not one word. The difference between full-grain and corrected leather, between thicknesses and tanning — and between leather all round or only where the visitor looks — separates two worlds. The Italian makers in our catalogue declare all of it on the product page, and that transparency is itself a mark of quality: those who state have nothing to hide. One honest note for the Indian climate: leather runs warmer than mesh through long seated hours, so in the cabin it belongs to the executive and boardroom chair — where presence is the brief — while the task floor may prefer other materials.

Gathered here: every leather executive, boardroom and visitor chair in the catalogue, with leather type declared.
