Here’s the thing about gaming chairs: They’re comfy as hell, but they tend to look like racing seats mated with a neon sign.

If your taste is less Technicolor fighter pilot and more 19th-century oil baron, there’s a new option on the market that might suit you better.

Hendrick’s Gin recently unveiled its ludicrously extravagant new Gaming Chaise, which it calls “the world’s longest and least technological gaming chair.”

More couch than chair, the chaise is “created specifically for unplugged play,” as in, games of the card and board rather than video variety. You know, like something you’d see in Knives Out.

It’s much too large to fit under your desk anyway, so PC gaming isn’t really an option to begin with.

Its analog focus is reflected in the gaming chaise’s extra features, like this twee retractable card holder.

More practically, it also comes with plenty of fold-out storage space for your stash of old-timey games and booze.

Of course, practicality isn’t really the goal here, as demonstrated by this big honkin’ horn, which Hendrick’s says is to “call for additional drinks,” but will probably just make you extremely unpopular with your neighbors.

Affordability is another notably absent goal. The Hendrick’s Gaming Chaise will set you back $4,000 — if you win a raffle for the chance to buy one.

So if you’ve recently inherited a fortune — perhaps after the mysterious untimely end of a loved one for which you have a convenient alibi — you, too, can enjoy a round of cards and smug glances in the comfort of the Hendrick’s Gaming Chaise.
