Ben Swivel Dining Armchair in Beige Performance Velvet with Channel-Tufted Back, Padded Armrests and Black Metal Legs with Hidden Swivel Plate
The dining armchair that earns its place at the head of the table. The Ben is built for long dinners, the conversations that follow, and the Sunday afternoons that turn into evenings. With a vertically channel-tufted back, padded armrests, and a four-leg base that lets you swivel into the conversation, this is a chair that gets used, not just admired.
Beige performance velvet wraps a curved seat and a tall channel-tufted back. The armrests are integrated into the side panels, and the chair sits on four slim black coated metal legs with a hidden swivel plate that keeps the rotation invisible from across the room.
Trusted by thousands of homes. Rated excellent on Trustpilot.
Comfort Built for the Long Meal
The seat is 48cm high with a cradling shape, deep enough to settle into without sliding forward over a two-hour dinner. High-density foam holds its form through repeated use, so the chair feels the same on month one as on month one hundred. The vertical channel tufting on the back gives the spine clear support panels, and the armrests are padded to elbow height so you can rest your forearms during long conversations. The seat width gives room to shift position without feeling boxed in.
The Swivel That Stays Solid
The most common complaint about cheaper swivel dining chairs is that the mechanism wobbles, squeaks, or feels loose after a few months. The Ben uses a heavy-duty swivel plate hidden between the seat and the four-leg base, rated for 130kg. The rotation is smooth across all 360 degrees, returns to centre when you stand up, and stays quiet through years of normal use. Hiding the plate inside the base keeps the visual line of the chair clean from every angle, so you get the swivel without the office-chair look.
Performance Velvet That Holds Up to Real Dinners
The Ben is upholstered in high-density performance velvet rated to 50,000 Martindale rubs, with a stain treatment built into the fibre. That means weeknight pasta, weekend brunches, and the occasional spilled glass of wine. Beige takes a touch more attention than dark velvets, but the woven texture and stain treatment give you time to catch spills before they settle, and the colour holds its tone through years of natural light. Vacuum on a soft brush attachment, blot any spill quickly, and the chair stays looking like the day it arrived.
Designed to Fit Standard Dining Tables
The Ben has a 48cm seat height, which sits comfortably under standard European dining tables of 73 to 76cm with the recommended 25 to 30cm of clearance for legs. The armrests sit just below most dining table edges, which means the chair tucks in close when not in use. If you have a table with a lower apron or skirt, measure from the underside of the table to your floor before ordering.

Built to Take Daily Use
Behind the velvet is a hardwood structural shell, joined and reinforced for daily seating. The four black coated metal legs are mounted to a hidden swivel plate, which keeps the rotation tight to the base and removes the typical spider-base footprint. Felt-friendly feet protect floors. The 130kg weight rating gives the chair a planted, stable feel without the bulk of a pedestal base. The armrests are integrated into the back panel rather than bolted on, so there is no joint to loosen over time.
A Distinctive Look for Design-Led Dining Rooms
The combination of the channel-tufted back, the curved seat profile, and the slim black metal legs sits in a contemporary glam family with mid-century proportions. The vertical stitching gives the back a quiet rhythm, the beige velvet adds warmth, and the black legs ground the look. Particularly at home in modern glam interiors, mid-century-modern dining rooms, contemporary minimalist homes, and design-led residential projects where the dining chair is meant to be looked at as well as sat in. Pairs naturally with marble dining tables, walnut tabletops, and warm-toned wood floors. Equally at home in hotel restaurants, private dining rooms, members' clubs, and executive offices.
For Hospitality and Trade
Specified for hotel restaurants, private dining rooms, members' clubs, executive offices, and design-led residential projects where the dining chair needs to feel like a designer piece rather than utility. Built to commercial-grade durability standards (50,000 Martindale stain-treated velvet, hidden heavy-duty swivel plate, 130kg capacity, black coated metal legs). Volume pricing, fabric samples on request, and flexible B2B payment options are available through our Trade Programme.
