Description
An elegant and exceptionally comfortable pair of vintage swivel lounge chairs with matching ottoman, manufactured by Pearson Furniture in High Point, North Carolina, circa 1980s. The three-piece seating ensemble combines classic American upholstered furniture craftsmanship with the relaxed sophistication associated with traditional English and contemporary transitional interiors.
The generously proportioned lounge chairs feature high rolled backs, upholstered arms, loose seat cushions, tailored dressmaker skirts, and 360-degree swivel bases. Their sculptural rolled-back profiles are particularly attractive when viewed from the side, making the chairs well suited for placement away from a wall or floating within a larger seating arrangement.
The chairs and ottoman are upholstered in an elegant pale celadon / sage green and cream floral textile, reportedly by Colefax, with a timeless botanical pattern that works beautifully within English country, traditional, transitional, Grandmillennial, and layered contemporary interiors. The matching ottoman is raised on four concealed legs beneath its tailored skirt and can function as a footrest, occasional seat, or small upholstered cocktail ottoman.
Original Pearson Furniture manufacturing labels remain intact. The labels identify the chairs as manufactured in High Point, North Carolina and document quality cushion construction incorporating waterfowl feathers and white duck down, contributing to their comfortable, relaxed seating character.
For interior designers and decorators, this coordinated three-piece set offers an increasingly difficult-to-find combination: a true pair of substantial vintage swivel club chairs together with their matching ottoman. The restrained green-and-cream palette is highly versatile, while the existing upholstery can be retained for a softly traditional scheme or used as an excellent foundation for a custom reupholstery project.
Ideal for a living room, library, study, primary bedroom, dressing room, sitting room, reading area, or sophisticated hospitality interior. The 360-degree swivel functionality also makes the chairs particularly useful in open-plan rooms where seating may need to address multiple conversation or focal areas.
Condition:
Vintage condition. The upholstery shows mild age-related wear and scattered light staining, consistent with use and age. Please refer closely to the photographs for condition. The swivel mechanisms are present and allow each chair to rotate 360 degrees. Original manufacturing labels remain intact.

Seat height: 18 in.
