Know before you buy
The scooped-out seat is ergonomically contoured to better support your body, reducing pressure points during longer meals compared to a flat wooden seat.
The conversion varnish is a high-performance finish that provides a hard, protective barrier against moisture, heat, and household chemicals, including alcohol. It is significantly more resilient than standard lacquer finishes.
Mortise and tenon is a traditional joinery technique where one piece of wood is inserted into a corresponding hole in another. This creates a mechanical lock that is far stronger and more stable than simple glued or nailed joints, ensuring the chair won't wobble over time.
Yes, many customers choose to place arm chairs at the head and foot of the table while using side chairs along the lengths. Both versions share the same height and design language, ensuring a cohesive look.
No, the bar stool versions are specifically engineered for counter or bar heights. They feature the same seat design and construction quality as the dining chairs but include a taller base and footrest for proper ergonomic support.
Simply wipe the chairs down with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes with silicone, as these can build up on the conversion varnish over time.
