Know before you buy
The side chair has a width of 18 3/4 inches, while the arm chair is wider at 23 1/2 inches to accommodate the armrests. Both chairs share the same seat height of 18 inches and total height of 40 inches, ensuring they look cohesive when mixed around a dining table.
The wood seat is ergonomically scooped and sculpted to provide natural contouring and support. If you prefer extra softness, you can opt for the 2-inch foam cushion upholstered in your choice of fabric or leather.
Hardwoods like Quarter Sawn White Oak, Hickory, and Hard Maple are exceptionally dense and durable, making them excellent choices for daily use. If you prefer a smoother grain, Brown Maple or Cherry are also high-quality options that hold up well with proper care.
The backrest is gently curved to follow the natural shape of your spine, providing better lumbar support than a flat back. Combined with the three wide mission slats, it offers a sturdy, upright posture that is ideal for dining.
Yes, you can customize your chair by selecting from a variety of solid hardwoods for the frame and choosing between a standard wood seat or an upholstered seat. You can even select a Brown Maple frame paired with an Elm seat for a unique two-tone aesthetic.
