This Sedus swivel chair from the 1950s exemplifies thoughtful office design rooted in the mid-century modern aesthetic. Crafted primarily from solid wood, it features a warm, honey-brown tone on the seat and backrest, with a slightly darker, reddish-brown four-legged base for stability. The substantial, widely splayed legs provide balance, while a central black metal column enables smooth swivel action and height adjustment between 43 and 58 cm. The seat is gently contoured, and the ergonomically curved backrest is mounted on a single, slightly angled support, offering three levels of backrest tilt adjustment. All joinery is precise and understated, free from ornamentation and highlighting the utilitarian essence of the design. The wooden surfaces have a matte or satin finish, with a visible grain that adds natural character. The chair remains in good condition, displaying minor signs of use and a patina typical of the 1950s; all mechanisms function smoothly. The form of this chair tells the story of post-war Western Europe, where office order and ergonomic comfort blended with a disciplined, minimalist approach. Its ability to swivel recalls the era when modernity meant simplicity and endurance. The warm wood tones and clear backrest line evoke the ambiance of design studios and secretarial offices, where each detail was intentional
