The turn-of-the-century Arts and Crafts movement revitalized many art-craft domains, including of course typography. One sidelight to the typographic art, but one in which many printers specialized, was the typographical ornament -- long a tradition among the very earliest printers, once again brought to the avant garde of design.The best American and European printers offered whole catalogs of original ornament in the Art Nouveau manner -- today they survive only in the archives of printers and historians of type. Here, from the archives of a contemporary typesetter and printing historian, is a selection of authentic Art Nouveau typographic ornament, culled out of late 19th and early 20th century specimen catalogs. Over 800 ornaments of all types include the patented Art Nouveau florals and flowing botanic wonders, both realistic and abstract. Women draped in pagan robes form borders and head and tailpieces. Animals abound: fish, elephants, turtles, birds, and creatures of myth and fancy. Innumerable spots, shapes, symbols, emblems, wreaths, scrolls, cherubs, and gargoyles show in clear black and white how they will look decorating menus, posters, handbills, ads, books, any functional or artistic project needing a flavor of Art Nouveau. Printers will be pleased to complement their Auriol, Baldur, Cordova, and Metropolitan, or other Art Nouveau-style typefaces with these unusual, long-forgotten ornaments. Mirror images given for many of the designs increase their utility. All images are from original sources, all copyright-free.

Very pleased with my purchase
Color: Brown, Size: Mid Back
Easy to put together - instructions are good - excellent quality and the chair is comfortable. Far from being flimsy it's a heavy chair which rolls perfectly as needed. You won't find that many good chairs (if any!) at this excellent price. As always the ultimate question is: would I buy it again? The answer is YES, definitively. Great purchase.

superb, worth 2x the pricez
Color: Brown, Size: High Back
While this may appear to be an average run of the mill copycat sort of generic office chair, it's actually very comfortable with perfect lumbar support. Looks great, and the leather (or leather equivalent) feels durable. This sucker will last me in my WFH setup for years I do not doubt. Save yourself a few hundred bucks getting this versus some "premium" office chair... I doubt you'll notice much if any difference.

22 year old gamer approved.
Color: Black, Size: Mid Back
So far so good!! I bought this chair for my gamer son, he sat the springs out of his last one, so this one making it this long has me very pleased. It was easy to put together, and the quality is pretty notable, especially the wheels, super smooth rolling. It was definitely worth what we paid for it, and he finds it very comfortable, providing plenty of back support, and a stable seat for hours of gaming.

The back of the chair is not supportive
Color: Brown, Size: Mid Back
Really nice casters that truly roll quietly. The faux leather is stitched well and sturdy. The only problem i have is that the back is not adjustable and gives 0 back support. The whole back of the chair is hollow inside so your lumbar gets no help. The seat is comfy but super wide like a lot of other reviews mentioned

Stick with Name Brands
Color: Grey
Product arrived as described. I am 47, 5'9" and 195 lbs. I suffer from lower back pain. I am a graphic designer that spends hours in front of the computer. I purchased a less expensive chair, but it made my back feel like it was on fire and I was hobbling around the home like an elderly man. It wa sa gaming chair, with a cool look, but horribly uncomfortable—about $75 less than this chair.
I decided on Serta due to the brand recognition and quality of build. The chair arrived without blemish. It's very easy to assemble, taking me about 20 mins. I am very pleased with the look and quality of the leather. The seat cushion and back rest is quite comfortable. Firm, but soft, not too firm, but not too soft. I spend long hours at my desk and so far my back feels great. No burning, no hobbling. It's worth the extra $50-100 in cost. Happy customer.
