Know before you buy
The side chair has an overall width of 19 inches, while the arm chair is wider at 25 1/4 inches to accommodate the armrests. Both chairs share the same seat height of 18 inches and a total height of 46 inches.
Through tenon construction is a traditional joinery technique where the wood piece passes completely through the joint. This creates a significantly stronger connection than standard dowels or screws, ensuring the arms remain stable and secure even after years of daily use.
Yes, the New Albany Mission Dining Chair is highly customizable. You can select from a wide range of fabric or leather options to match your existing dining room decor.
Optional glides are recommended if you have hardwood, tile, or laminate floors, as they provide a protective barrier between the solid wood legs and the floor surface. They help prevent scratches and make it easier to slide the chairs in and out.
The seat features 2 inches of high-density polyurethane foam, rated at 1.8 lbs. density. This provides a supportive, medium-firm feel that is designed to maintain its shape and comfort over time.
Yes, because these chairs are made to order, you can request customizations beyond the standard selections. Contact our team to discuss specific modifications to ensure the piece fits your unique requirements.
