A convertible chair wherein arm cushions (12, 13) are mounted on the back (11) of the chair and when released from a locked position can be independently rotated about an axis (15) extending through a cushion and forwardly from the back. The position of the rotational axis (15) is also movable such that each arm may be moved to any position between a first position (36) on top of the seat (10), a second position (38) providing a widthwise extension of the seat and a third position (39) below said second position. Movement of the rotational axis (15) causes a change in the shape of the back of the chair to suit the new position of the arms. By means of a unique mounting arrangement (28, 28) for the arm cushions and a locking arrangement (24, 33) within the back (11) a single lifting movement of the arm cushion is able to release the locking arrangement whereby rotation movement of the arm cushion and movement of the rotational axis (15) is facilitated. |
