Know before you buy
The side chair has an overall width of 19 inches, while the arm chair is wider at 24 1/2 inches to accommodate the arms. Both chairs share the same seat height of 18 inches and overall height of 38 inches, ensuring they look cohesive when paired together at the same table.
Mortise and tenon is a traditional joinery technique where a projection on one piece of wood fits into a corresponding hole in another. This method creates a significantly stronger bond than simple nails or screws, ensuring the chair remains sturdy and wobble-free even after years of daily use.
Yes, you can upgrade from the standard solid wood seat to a variety of fabric or leather options. We offer several tiers of upholstery, including Crypton fabrics, which are specifically engineered for high-traffic dining areas and are resistant to stains and moisture.
No assembly is required. Each chair is handcrafted and shipped fully assembled, so they are ready to be placed in your dining room immediately upon delivery.
Yes, you can select the optional chair glides during the ordering process. These glides attach to the bottom of the chair legs to provide a smooth buffer between the wood and your flooring.
All available options are 100% genuine hardwoods, meaning they are all highly durable and suitable for dining furniture. Harder woods like Hard Maple and White Oak offer superior resistance to dents and scratches, while species like Cherry and Walnut are prized for their distinct grain patterns and how they age over time.
