Office chairs that don't look like office chairs

DH has taken to working in a very public part of the house. Ideally the table would have a couple of chairs that are good enough to sit in for a day's work but also look nice. Has anyone had any luck finding something like this?

I brought chairs home from my office when we started working from home, they are as standard, burgundy fabric and the rest is black with chrome feet.

I bought some stretch over covers from Amazon, they are for the base of chairs, but i measured up and the cover also fits the back rest. pack of 2 for around £12. I got them in grey and they now match the other colours in dining room and spare room where my DP and I both have home office set ups.

I bought a lovely one from the range but it is large. Would work more as a spare Living room chair.

Depends what you want. Pivot? Or just nice upholstered dining room chair comfy enough to sit on?

Try made or Wayfair. There's lots because everyone is doing it now

There’s a definite gap in the market for nice looking office chairs

Thanks everyone. I've been looking on Wayfair for inspiration and think I just can't have wheels. Those are the things that make it look too much like an office chair! I'm going to look at dining chairs instead.

You can buy feet to use instead of castors.

I am using it as an office chair but it's sold as a dining chair and rotates 180 degrees.

Really an office chair should be height adjustable so check your posture in it first.

Fama, a Spanish brand, do office chairs that look like small armchairs. Very stylish.

My office chair doesn't have wheels. You can find loads with legs instead now.
