Know before you buy
You can choose between solid wood for a classic, easy-to-clean surface, or opt for fabric, leather, or handwoven fiber for added comfort and texture. Solid wood is the most durable, while upholstered options provide a softer feel for longer dining sessions.
Distressing adds subtle, intentional wear to the wood, such as small nicks or softened edges, to give the chair a lived-in, antique aesthetic. It is an excellent choice if you want your furniture to look like a well-loved heirloom rather than a brand-new piece.
Yes, the Fairfax chair is highly customizable. You can select different finishes for the frame and seat, or choose a two-tone look to create a custom aesthetic that complements your existing dining room decor.
The chair measures 21 inches wide, 19 inches deep, and 38 inches high, with a standard seat height of 18 inches. This height is compatible with most standard dining tables, which typically sit between 28 and 30 inches high.
Absolutely. Because these chairs are handcrafted from solid Oak, Cherry, or Brown Maple and finished with a durable conversion varnish, they are built to withstand the daily wear and tear of a busy household.
To keep the finish looking its best, simply wipe the chairs down with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes with silicone, as these can build up and dull the protective conversion varnish over time.
