介绍（中）	在十八世纪中叶，法国菜单师或细木工制作了实用而优雅的椅子，专门用于桌子后面。通过改变椅子的传统布局，他们创造了所谓的fauteuil de Cabinet或办公扶手椅。为了获得更大的稳定性，他们将一个直立放在前面，以便用户可以将腿放在两侧。凭借其起伏的轮廓，这些椅子具有圆形的靠背，为上半身提供支撑，而弯曲的手臂则提供额外的支撑。在十八世纪下半叶，引入了一种变体，一种带有旋转座椅的椅子，以使用户具有更大的移动性。这种可旋转的办公椅一直流行到十九世纪初。这款办公椅的靠背和旋转座椅是藤条，这是一种由藤树皮制成的异国情调的材料，藤树是一种生长在东南亚的攀援棕榈树。树皮被切成条状，穿过椅子框架上的孔，交叉交叉形成细网。鞭刑于十七世纪后期首次引入欧洲，用于餐椅以及放置在梳妆台或桌子后面的椅子：它不仅轻巧坚固，而且实用，因为它防水防污。
介绍（英）	During the mid-eighteenth century, French menuisiers or joiners made both practical and elegant chairs, specifically for use behind a desk. By changing the traditional layout of a chair, they created a so-called fauteuil de cabinet or office armchair. For greater stability, they placed one upright in front so that the user could arrange his legs on either side. With their undulating outline, these chairs have a rounded back offering support for the upper body while the curving arms are provided for additional support. During the second half of the eighteenth century, a variant was introduced, a chair with a rotating seat, to allow the user greater mobility. This kind of swiveling office chair remained popular until the early nineteenth century. The back and rotating seat of this desk chair are caned, an exotic material made of bark of the Rattan tree, a climbing palm that grows in South East Asia. The bark was cut into strips and passed through holes in the chair frame and cross-crossed to form a fine mesh. First introduced into Europe in the later seventeenth century, caning was used for dining chairs and for those placed at the dressing table or behind a desk: it was not only light and sturdy but also practical since it was water and stain resistant.
