Danish Rosewood & Leather Swivel Lounge Chairs by P. Schultz & Co. — 1960s

Two rare and exceptional Danish swivel and tilt arm chairs by A/S P. Schultz & Co., Denmark, circa 1960s. 

These chairs feature solid Brazilian rosewood frames and star bases — an uncommon and highly sought-after variant that elevates them above the standard chrome-based models. The rich rosewood grain flows seamlessly from the sculpted armrests down through the five-point base, pairing beautifully with the original deep-buttoned black leather upholstery.

Comfort is as considered as the aesthetics: both chairs offer full swivel and adjustable tilt, ensuring they remain as functional today as when they were first crafted.
