These two ochre textured leather armchairs, both alike, were used on the set of The Oprah Winfrey Show. Each chair is shaped with a deep, rectangular seat, padded arms with a slight, rounded curve, and a padded back with a scalloped top edge. The padded seat cushion for each chair is attached at the back of the chair with two (2) lengths of black elastic with a metal D-ring that fasten to corresponding metal clips on the cushion. Four (4) dark-stained short wooden legs extend from each bottom corner of the chairs. Decorative piping in the ochre leather is sewn around the edges of the back, the front arms, and the seat cushion. Under the cushion, the chair is lined with matching ochre heavy-weight fabric. A label for the upholstery company Weber Furniture Service LLC is adhered to the lining at the front edge of the seat.
