Hey, First time to this site and love it.
I have a vintage black swivel office chair that I know was my grandfathers. I remember playing in it at his house when I was very young and he died when I was about 2 yrs old - about 34 years ago. I think that it's 1960's but I know less then nothing about antiques. The closest thing I have been able to find online is a H.W Klein black swivel chair but my chair seems to have extra stitching between back base of seat over arms.
There is no brand mark on the base or on the seat or under the seat but I'd love to know what I have.
Thanks for all of your help in advance.

I am quite sure that it's Bramin. I recently redid one that had the original fabric. I redid an labeled Bramin around the same and both has the same base as your chair. You can see that the one in the photos here has the same unusual shape to the top of the back, plus the same arm shape, etc., as yours.
Your seat cushion is different than on the two I did but that may have to do with it being leather and the two I did were both fabric. The fabric ones had an unusual upholstery method for the seats that may have been harder to do in leather---not sure why the difference. Or maybe they just modified the method/design at some point for ease in upholstering or a different look.
What originally brought me to think it was a klein (bramin) was this photo.

However the stitching is different from the middle of the arms to the back of the seat.
