Description
The Arcus Velvet Armchair in light khaki measures 71 × 79 × 98 cm and weighs 12 kg. Velvet fabric upholstery sits over a reinforced internal structure on a metal swivel base that turns a full 360 degrees. The swivel is the point: one chair can face a window, a desk or the room without being dragged around. Assembly is required.
Compact footprint, but plan the turning circle
71 × 79 × 98 cm
The light khaki Arcus takes 71 cm of width and 79 cm of depth and stands 98 cm high. The swivel adds a requirement a fixed chair does not have: the chair sweeps its own footprint as it turns, so a side table or skirting within about 80 cm of the centre will be clipped. Assembled weight is 12 kg, and the carton is 71 × 38 × 73.5 cm at 14 kg.
A 98 cm back that turns with you
The seat and back of the light khaki Arcus are padded over a reinforced internal structure, with the back carrying to 98 cm overall so support reaches past the shoulders. What changes the experience is the 360 degree swivel: you can turn from a window to a desk to the room without standing up or dragging the chair, which is why the description lists it for both home and office use. The metal base keeps the chair stable through that rotation.
Velvet on a metal swivel base
The light khaki Arcus is specified as velvet fabric upholstery with a metal swivel base and a reinforced internal structure. Velvet is directional, so light khaki will read paler or deeper depending on how the pile lies — a soft brush in one direction evens it out. The metal base is a single central support, so check the floor contact points rather than four separate legs.

Assembly & delivery
Assembly is required. The package contains one Arcus Velvet Armchair in light khaki, in a carton measuring 71 × 38 × 73.5 cm and weighing 14 kg. Assemble the base on a level floor and check the chair sits square before you load it, because a swivel shows an uneven build immediately. Most orders ship the next business day, with nationwide delivery across New Zealand.
The studio where one chair has two jobs
A studio or one-room apartment is where the light khaki Arcus pays for itself: the 360 degree swivel lets one chair face a desk during the day and a window in the evening without being shifted. The trade-off is clearance — a swivel sweeps its own 71 by 79 cm footprint, so nothing can sit tight against it. Keep 80 cm clear around the base.
How much clearance does the light khaki Arcus swivel need?
The light khaki Arcus is 71 cm wide and 79 cm deep, and because it swivels a full 360 degrees it sweeps that footprint as it turns. Anything within roughly 80 cm of the base centre will be clipped by the arms. In a studio, leave a clear ring around the chair rather than tucking a side table against it.
What does the metal base on the light khaki Arcus do?
A metal swivel base carries the light khaki Arcus and provides the 360 degree rotation, acting as a single central support rather than four separate legs. That is also why the chair feels planted at 12 kg while still turning freely. Check the base contact points sit flat on the floor after assembly.
How tall is the light khaki Arcus and where does it support you?
Overall height on the light khaki Arcus is 98 cm, which brings the back up past the shoulders rather than stopping at the mid-back. Combined with the swivel, that suits long sessions where you turn between a desk and a window. It also means the chair reads tall in a low-ceilinged room despite its 71 cm width.
Does light khaki velvet show the pile direction on the Arcus?
Light khaki velvet on the Arcus shifts noticeably between paler and deeper depending on which way the pile has been brushed, which is a property of velvet rather than uneven dyeing. A soft brush in a single direction across the 71 cm seat and back evens it out before guests arrive or before photographs.
How does the light khaki Arcus arrive, and what does the carton measure?
The light khaki Arcus ships in one carton of 71 × 38 × 73.5 cm weighing 14 kg, containing the chair only. Assembly is required, and the swivel base is the part that matters: build it on a level floor and confirm the chair sits square, because a swivel exposes an uneven assembly straight away.
Is the light khaki Arcus suitable for a reading corner that doubles as a desk chair?
A reading corner that also serves as a desk position suits the light khaki Arcus, because the 360 degree swivel lets you turn between the two without moving the chair, and the 98 cm back supports you in either. The limit is the turning clearance: 71 by 79 cm swept means the desk cannot sit hard against the arms.
