The swivel chair in the office and home office furniture
In case you want to sit at a desk or a table and suddenly you happen to desire to turn the back to the table and look out of your window but very fast without showing, you know, just a rapid glance to take a breath from what you're doing and then turn again to your job, well, then you would need a swivel chair.
If you need to reach a drawer standing one meter away from you, then you'd use a swivel chair.
A swivel chair is actually a normal chair, with a seat and a back and sometimes arms like all chairs, but instead of feet it has swivels mounted on a spoke linked to the seat by a single pivoting leg. But swivel means also revolving, so it is quite common to see revolving chairs described as swivel.
This means that they are without wheels but they can turn on their vertical axis, normally on a central post.
This kind of chair in all possible constructions (ergonomic, leather, computer, fabric, in metal, in wood, in steel, or whatsoever) is the most diffused for office use.
The manufacturers continue producing these chair confident that nothing could ever replace the comfort and the intelligent expedient to have a mobile seat which does not make the floor scream when moving to and fro on it (or staying fixed on the floor and turning on their axis)
Indeed nobody could ever deny that their purpose has been reached, as nobody until now has found another suitable moving system not including wheels or swivels.
Well, there's always the air cushion but it is not practically commercializable, at the time being, maybe in the future somebody will invent a suspended chair on air cushions and we'll be the first to use it.
Nowadays, the swivel chair is seen in almost every corner on earth, giving its silent support and comfort to all its sometimes ungrateful users. Available all over the world in nearly any material you could possibly think of.
