Ben Swivel Dining Armchair in Black Velvet with a Wraparound Channel-Stitched Back and Black Metal Legs
Black velvet, a back that wraps round you and a seat that turns. The Ben gives a dining table a dark, soft-textured anchor and lets whoever sits in it swing round to join the conversation. Because the back curves into integrated armrests, it feels closer to a small armchair than a standard dining chair.
The velvet is a deep black with a faint cool undertone and a soft nap that catches the light along the vertical stitching. Four black metal legs angle outwards under the seat, so the chair reads as one dark shape against a pale floor.
Comfort That Wraps Around
Sit down and the back closes round your shoulders and sides, finishing in low armrests 64 cm above the floor. The seat is padded and 44 cm deep, and the swivel base lets you turn towards a guest without shuffling the chair backwards. The back rises 29 cm above the seat, so it holds your lower and mid back rather than reaching up to the shoulder blades.
Black Velvet in Daily Use
Velvet is a fabric with a short, dense pile, and black shows its depth better than any other shade. Pale dust, lint and pet hair stand out on dark pile, so a quick pass with a soft brush or a lint roller keeps it looking deep. Blot spills straight away instead of rubbing, and keep the chair out of strong direct sunlight.
Will It Fit Your Table?
With a seat height of 48 cm the Ben suits dining tables of about 74 to 77 cm, and the armrests at 64 cm clear a standard table top. The chair is 55 cm wide and 76 cm high, so plan on roughly 60 cm of table length for each chair. For more choice, see our dining chairs and the full velvet chairs range.
Built on Four Black Legs
The legs are black metal and angle outwards from the frame under the seat, which is where the chair swivels. Felt pads on the feet protect wooden and tiled floors, and the seating capacity is 120 kg.
The Dark Note in the Room
Black velvet works as the dark note in a scheme. Against light oak and white walls it draws a clean outline, and beside marble, brass or walnut it gives the room a deeper, evening mood. It suits modern, contemporary and urban dining rooms.
Good to Know
Will black velvet show dust and lint?
Yes, more than a mid shade would. A soft brush or a lint roller every week keeps the pile clean, and spills should be blotted, not rubbed.
Is it comfortable for a long dinner?
Yes. The seat is padded and 44 cm deep, the back wraps round your sides and the armrests sit at 64 cm from the floor, so your arms have somewhere to rest.
Which table finish looks best with it?
Light oak and white marble tops make the black stand out, while walnut or a black table gives a deeper, tonal look.
