Penhaligon's - Portraits - The Inimitable William PenhaligonAls Mr. Penhaligon sein erstes Eau de Cologne kreierte (fr die knigliche Familie und den Adel), hatte er sich in Mayfair niedergelassen (dem Zentrum der Kultur der Alten Welt). Unsere verehrte Queen Victoria und der Schah von Persien trugen alsbald seinen Duft und die Bitte um Ernennung zum kniglichen Hoflieferanten erhielt rasch die knigliche Zustimmung. Wir schreiben das Jahr 1870, und die Welt entdeckte gerade, was eines Tages sein Erbe sein wrde.

Als Mr. Penhaligon sein erstes Eau de Cologne kreierte (für die königliche Familie und den Adel), hatte er sich in Mayfair niedergelassen (dem Zentrum der Kultur der Alten Welt). Unsere verehrte Queen Victoria und der Schah von Persien trugen alsbald seinen Duft und die Bitte um Ernennung zum königlichen Hoflieferanten erhielt rasch die königliche Zustimmung. Wir schreiben das Jahr 1870, und die Welt entdeckte gerade, was eines Tages sein Erbe sein würde. Das alles entspricht der Wahrheit.

Es war einmal eine Lady Blanche, der es nach Rache dürstete. Lord George war recht beunruhigt. Würde Clandestine Clara sein ganzes Leben auf den Kopf stellen? Duchess Rose sehnte sich nach Abenteuern (der heißen Art). Terrible Teddy war für alles zu haben, seinem Aufstieg ging jedoch meist der Niedergang eines anderen voraus … William Penhaligon, der berühmte Parfümeur, war für ein Wochenende zu Gast auf dem Landgut von Lord und Lady George. Wie jeder große Künstler fühlte er sich berufen, ein Porträt jedes Einzelnen zu schaffen … Das alles ist herrlich frei erfunden.

Sein Duft
Ein Parfüm für einen Gentleman. Erhaben und elegant. Wie ein guter Freund gleichermaßen anregend wie beruhigend. Wie große Kunst und Musik, erhebend. Gekonnt vom Experten komponiert mit viel Liebe zum Detail, die Pinselstriche kraftvoll und souverän – der eigene Duft von William Penhaligon. Vornehm und einzigartig. Ein zeitloser Klassiker, seit dem Jahre 2020. Im Mittelpunkt eine der wichtigsten Ingredienzen der Parfümerie: Vetiver. Erdig, warm und frisch. Eingebunden in einen orientalischen Duft, Inbegriff der Raffinesse und Eleganz in der Parfumkunst.

William Penhaligon
Dies ist die Geschichte eines Barbiers aus Cornwall, die Rede ist von William Penhaligon, der nach London reiste und sein Geschäft in der Straße mit den herausragendsten Schneidern der Stadt eröffnete. Der zum königlichen Hoflieferanten ernannt wurde und dem Schah von Persien den Bart stutzte. Zu einer Zeit, in der die eigene Schönheitstoilette mit tiefem Ernst begangen wurde und das Dasein eines Gentlemans mit hohem Aufwand verbunden war.

Zu jener Zeit regierte Queen Victoria, Antiseptika kamen zum ersten Mal zum Einsatz – und Knöchel hatten noch etwas Aufreizendes. Diese Geschichte spielt in dem Jahrzehnt nach der Ermordung von Abraham Lincoln, der Eröffnung des Suezkanals und der Gründung der Londoner Feuerwehr. Zur gleichen Zeit erschienen Charles Dickens Roman „Große Erwartungen“, „Alice im Wunderland“, „Krieg und Frieden“ und „Das Kapital“. Man schreibt das Jahr 1870. Erbe, Empire und Porträtmalerei sind an der Tagesordnung. Die meiste Zeit jedenfalls. Das alles entspricht der Wahrheit.

Es war zu einer Zeit …
Auch wenn sich niemand sicher ist, wann das alles passiert ist. Irgendwo in den sanften Hügeln der englischen Countryside, umringt von majestätischen Eichen, geht die Sonne sanft über einem herrschaftlichen Landsitz auf, dessen Fundamente kurz nach der Ankunft von Wilhelm dem Eroberer entstanden sind. Jedenfalls so ungefähr.

Unbelastet von Politik und Krieg machen sich zwei oder drei Hausdiener mühsam an die Arbeit. Sie öffnen die Vorhänge, lassen Bäder ein, schlagen Teppiche aus und heizen die Öfen an. Alles, um das morgendliche Zusammentreffen der Familie, der sie dienen, vorzubereiten. Die Vorbereitungen für das Frühstück sind nicht aufwendiger als für die der anderen Mahlzeiten des Tages. Doch die Zeit, die ab der Dämmerung für alle Arbeiten bleibt, ist einfach unzureichend. Die Anspannung ist enorm.

Perfect Balance of Comfort, Support, and Style!
Size: 934-Z, Color: Black, Size: 934-Z, Color: Black
I’ve been using this chair for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed with how much of a difference it’s made in my workspace. The mesh back is one of my favorite features—it offers excellent breathability and prevents that sticky, overheated feeling you sometimes get with solid-back chairs, even after sitting for hours. The seat cushion is firm enough to give proper support but still has enough give to keep me comfortable through long workdays. It feels like the perfect middle ground between soft and supportive. The adjustable foot ring has been a complete game changer for me. I use a taller desk setup, and having somewhere to rest my feet makes a huge difference in posture and overall comfort. Whether I’m sitting upright for focused work or leaning back to read, it’s always at the right height. The flip-up armrests are another smart design choice. When I’m typing, I like to have them down for support, but when I’m done, I can flip them up and push the chair neatly under my desk—saving space and keeping things tidy. The casters roll smoothly on both hardwood and rugs, so I can move around easily without scraping the floor or getting stuck. The overall build quality feels solid and sturdy, with no wobbles or creaks. Assembly was surprisingly quick—everything was clearly labeled, the parts felt durable, and it only took me about 20 minutes from opening the box to sitting in the chair. The sleek, modern look is another big plus—it blends in perfectly with my home office décor without feeling bulky or taking up too much visual space. If you’re looking for a chair that combines comfort, ergonomic support, durability, and style, I can’t recommend this one enough. It’s equally great for work, studying, or just relaxing at your desk, and it’s definitely been worth every penny.

OK for the price, but overall comfort is avergae
Size: 934-Z, Color: Mustard
Easy to put together, color (mustard) accurate to images, and while I understand this is not a high-end chair, I feel like it still needs to be rated for its quality. Pros: the seat cushions are fairly comfortable and it rolls well. Adjustable footrest is easy enough and mostly sturdy. Cons: For a tall office chair, it doesn't go up high enough. I actually had to lower my standing desk to sit at it, which then isn't where I want it when I'm standing now. It's also a bit wobbly. The seat area's attachment to the post isn't as solid as it should be for a tall chair, so while sitting, it does tend to lean/slope forward and wobble side to side. The lumbar support is not adjustable, so I'm not even really sure what it does. And the armrests are not very comfortable to use. Since they are hard plastic, they are just a bit too rigid to rely on for any comfort. They are basically there to hold on to when you're getting out of the chair.

Good Value for a Tall Chair
Size: 934W-Z, Color: White
I have received this chair just today and would like to give my first impressions of it. Height is super adjustable as well as the foot rest. My desk is very tall (~34 inches vs standard ~29 inches) and does not suit a standard height chair. This chair's height is enough to sit comfortably at mybut also still having adjustment to be even higher. Lumbar support is a manual adjustment that can be adjusted by sliding the lumbar piece up or down and it seems it can be tiled as well. No reclining feature or slight backrest tilt adjustment. I'm used to my chairs reclining so it feels a little awkward siting in a flat base and straight backrest. I feel like I'm sitting too forward or leaning forward slightly but is probably something I can get use to. Easy to put together and feels very sturdy. Plastic parts of chair are made from a really sturdy plastic, like playhouse plastic materials. Wheels roll around carpet easily. Mesh seems to be a strong material, though the mesh feels kind itchy on bare skin. Overall, I think this is a good chair to get if you're needing a tall chair for a good value and can sacrifice no backrest tilt.

Excellent value for money!
Size: 934W-Z, Color: Black, Size: 934W-Z, Color: Black
I absolutely love this office chair! I needed a chair that could support my standing desk without sacrificing comfort, and this one completely exceeded my expectations. It's incredibly sturdy and durable, well-made, and the height adjustment is super convenient, making it easy to find the perfect fit. Even during long hours of work, the seat is comfortable, and the ergonomic design effectively reduces pressure on my back and legs. I love its clean, modern look—it fits my home office perfectly. Assembly was quick and easy, and for this price, the quality is absolutely fantastic!

Perfect chair!
Size: 934-Z, Color: Blue, Size: 934-Z, Color: Blue
I have an adjustable-height desk (also purchased from Amazon) and needed a drafting chair for those times when my body gets tired of standing. This chair fits the bill and then some! I put it together myself; it took me about an hour, but would take me about half that next time, since now I know what to do (and what NOT to do!). All the parts were there; there are even spare parts (see photo). All the holes were drilled in exactly the right places, too, which isn't always the case when I buy things from Amazon (my standing desk is a great example). The chair fits me; I'm short (5'3.5"), and often the seats of furniture are too deep for me to rest my feet flat on the floor. The depth of the seat on this chair is just a little over 18 inches, and with the adjustable footrest ring, it's perfect. I don't think a tall or heavy person would fit in it, to be honest. But it's perfect for those of us who are vertically challenged. I love that it glides easily on my hardwood floors and that it turns 360 degrees. The chair comes in numerous luscious colors, so take your pick! It is very sturdy, has good lumbar support, and the seat and seat back are very comfortable. And the arms flip up, which was an absolute must when I was shopping for this chair. I got it on sale, too -- $109.00 -- and I'm delighted with this purchase.
