Know before you buy
Mortise and tenon is a traditional woodworking technique that creates an incredibly strong, interlocking connection. It is far more durable than standard glue-and-screw construction, ensuring the chair remains stable and wobble-free for decades.
The conversion varnish is a high-performance, professional-grade finish specifically designed to resist moisture, heat, and alcohol. It provides a much tougher protective barrier than standard lacquer, making it ideal for high-traffic dining areas.
Yes, the saddle scoop design is contoured to support the natural shape of the body, which helps distribute weight more evenly than a flat seat. While it is ergonomic on its own, you can also opt for fabric or leather upholstery if you prefer additional cushioning.
The Waverly Dining Chair has a total height of 40 1/2 inches. Since standard dining tables are typically 29 to 30 inches high, these chairs are designed to slide comfortably underneath most standard-height tables.
Yes, the Waverly is fully customizable. You can select from various solid wood species and stain options to ensure the grain and color coordinate with your existing dining room pieces.
