The chair arrived without requiring further assembly. Absolutely gorgeous. The leather is just as promised- soft and elegant but resilient. After a few months, I'm still enamored. It is low to the ground and just the right amount of tilt and swivel, which make it more relaxing. the chair is as decorative as it is functional. And everyone assumes it's the real thing, rather than a reproduction. Rosewood and black classic leather was my choice. No regrets and excellent investment. Thank you Rove concepts.
