Refurbished Humanscale Freedom Headrest Chair – Vintage Green Leather

This refurbished Humanscale Freedom Headrest chair pairs Niels Diffrient's self-adjusting ergonomic design with distinctive vintage green leather and cushioned gel arm pads. The result is a premium office chair with genuine visual character, intuitive movement and head-and-neck support that follows the user as they recline.

Available from our Bradford base with delivery to Leeds, West Yorkshire, London and workplaces nationwide across the UK. The photographs show the vintage colour variation, creasing and patina that make this leather configuration unique.

Key features

• Freedom Headrest design: the dynamic headrest moves with the sitter during recline to support the head and neck without repeated manual adjustment.
• Weight-sensitive recline: Humanscale's counterbalance mechanism uses the sitter's weight to provide balanced support through the recline range.
• Pivoting sculpted backrest: the back follows changes in posture and supports the natural shape of the body.
• Vintage green leather upholstery: a rich green finish with visible tonal variation, creasing and a naturally aged appearance.
• Gel arm pads: soft, pressure-relieving pads provide comfortable forearm support at the desk.
• Synchronous arm adjustment: Freedom's arms move together and remain supportive as the chair changes position.
• Adjustable seat height: gas-lift adjustment helps align the chair with the desk and the user's lower-leg position.
• Graphite frame and five-star base: a strong, understated structure with twin-wheel castors.
• Headrest configuration: suited to users who want extra support while reclining, reading or taking calls.

Why choose the Humanscale Freedom?

The Freedom chair was designed to reduce the number of knobs and locks normally found on ergonomic task chairs. Its recline responds automatically to the sitter, allowing easier changes between upright work and a more relaxed position. The backrest, headrest and arm supports work together to keep contact with the body as posture changes.

This vintage green leather version is especially well suited to executive offices, creative studios, premium home offices and client-facing spaces where appearance matters as much as ergonomic performance. The patinated leather gives each chair a more individual look than a uniform new finish.

Condition

This is a professionally refurbished, pre-owned chair with deliberately visible vintage character. The green leather shows tonal variation, creasing, rubbing and patina across the seat, back and headrest, as clearly shown in the photographs. These marks are part of the chair's aged appearance rather than a uniform factory-new finish. The chair has been checked, cleaned and prepared for reuse.

Frequently asked questions

Is the green leather uniform in colour?
