Beautiful ... mine looked like the one pictured here but one size smaller. It was an old antique chair that my wife kept for years dreaming that she would reupholster it some day. Big giant wooden back with a piece of fabric cushion, giant uncomfortable armrests, sharp wooden seat lining and a collapsed center cushion that I filled with pillows and blankets .... it was my captain's chair for about the first five years of being online in the late 90s. I can still hear the dial up sound of the modem as I adjusted the pillows and fabrics for another session of being online ..... and then shouting at my wife to not use the phone as I lost my connection again.
