Original Old Boot Bookworm Armchair in Hand-Dyed Tan Leather

An original Old Boot Bookworm armchair, hand finished and upholstered in hand-dyed tan leather. This is a traditional winged armchair with a deep seat, upright back and a solid, reassuring feel when you sit in it.

The leather has been dyed by hand, giving it natural variation in tone across the chair. It’s not uniform or flat — you’ll see lighter and darker areas, especially on the arms and seat, which is exactly how this type of leather should look.

A proper reading chair with presence, built for comfort rather than show.

This Old Boot Bookworm armchair is all about proportion and comfort. The seat is deeper than most traditional wing chairs, making it ideal for reading or relaxing without feeling low or slouched. The back is upright and supportive, with gently shaped wings that give a sense of enclosure without being heavy.

The hand-dyed tan leather is the standout feature. Because it’s dyed by hand, the colour varies naturally across the surface, with richer tones in some areas and lighter highlights where the leather has been handled and finished. Over time it will continue to soften and develop further character rather than wearing out.

Brass stud detailing runs neatly along the arms and wings, keeping the shape crisp without overpowering the design. The overall feel is solid and well made — this is not a lightweight decorative chair, but a proper leather armchair meant for everyday use.
