Know before you buy
The Carter Side Chairs are sold in pairs, though the price listed is per individual piece.
Because this chair is upholstered in 100% Washed Belgian Linen, we recommend professional cleaning to maintain the fabric's texture and color integrity. For minor spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing.
With a total height of 34 inches, this chair is designed to tuck neatly under most standard dining tables. We recommend measuring the distance from your floor to the underside of your table apron to ensure at least 8 to 10 inches of clearance for your legs.
Yes, the angular base is engineered for structural integrity and balance. At 27.5 pounds, the chair has a substantial weight that prevents it from feeling flimsy or prone to tipping.
The seat is designed for a balance of comfort and support. It features plush upholstery that offers a soft feel while maintaining its shape during extended use.
