Vintage Palliser Green Leather Swivel Recliner & Ottoman, Maker Marked

This vintage Palliser maker-marked swivel recliner and ottoman set exemplifies the brand’s celebrated approach to North American seating design. Upholstered in a deep, elegant green leather, the chair features a generously contoured back, full arm cushions, and a plush saddle seat that rests on a substantial pedestal base. The manual side-knob reclining mechanism—smooth and tactile—allows the user to shift effortlessly between upright and lounge positions. Paired with its matching ottoman, the ensemble offers the quiet sophistication and enveloping comfort that distinguish Palliser’s late-20th-century motion furniture.

Founded in 1944 in Winnipeg, Palliser became one of Canada’s premier upholstery manufacturers, known for kiln-dried hardwood and engineered frames, sinuous-spring suspension, and long-lasting, high-quality leathers. Collections from this era often served as precursors to today’s luxury motion seating, balancing craftsmanship with sculptural form. This set is a handsome example of that heritage—substantial, inviting, and designed with the durability and refinement that have made Palliser a respected name among collectors of vintage North American furniture.

Condition
In fair condition with gentle signs of use. Leather displays natural creasing and subtle wear from age. A small paint speck is present on the chair’s back, and a crack is noted on a separate bronzed loveseat from the same setting (not included). Both pieces remain structurally sound and fully functional.
