Know before you buy
Mortise and tenon is a traditional joinery technique where one piece of wood is inserted into a hole in another, creating a mechanical lock. This method is significantly stronger and more stable than using screws or nails, ensuring the chair remains sturdy through decades of daily use.
The conversion varnish is a high-performance, catalyzed finish that provides a hard, protective barrier. It is specifically formulated to resist damage from common household liquids, including alcohol, making it an excellent choice for a dining environment.
Yes, the scooped-out design is ergonomically contoured to follow the natural shape of the body. This shaping helps distribute weight more evenly, providing better support and comfort than a flat wooden seat.
Absolutely. You can customize the chair by selecting your preferred solid wood species, stain color, and upholstery material. This allows you to tailor the aesthetic to match your existing dining table and interior style.
The side chair is 18 inches wide, while the arm chair is 21 inches wide. Both models share a depth of 17 inches and a height of 36 inches, so you should ensure your table has enough perimeter space to accommodate the wider arm chairs if you plan to use them.
