Know before you buy
Yes, the Lynxville Mission Dining Chair is available in both side chair and arm chair configurations. The arm chair version adds approximately 5 inches to the total width and includes arms set at a height of 25 1/4 inches for added support.
You can choose a solid wood seat for a traditional look or opt for a 2-inch foam cushion upholstered in your choice of fabric or leather. The cushioned seat provides extra comfort for longer dining sessions, while the wood seat offers a classic, easy-to-clean surface.
We offer stained, painted, and conversion varnish finishes, with options for light or heavy distressing to create a lived-in aesthetic. The conversion varnish is particularly durable, providing a protective, moisture-resistant layer that is available in different sheens ranging from flat matte to semi-gloss.
Hardwoods like Hickory, Quarter Sawn White Oak, and Hard Maple are exceptionally dense and resistant to dents and scratches, making them excellent choices for busy households. Softer woods like Brown Maple are beautiful but may show wear more easily, though they take stains and paints very well.
Yes, because these chairs are handcrafted by Amish woodworkers, we can often accommodate custom requests beyond the standard wood and finish selections. Please reach out to our team with your specific requirements to see if your vision can be realized.
Both the side chair and the arm chair versions feature a standard seat height of 18 inches, which is designed to fit comfortably with most standard dining tables.
