Know before you buy
The side chair and arm chair share the same seat dimensions and height, but the arm chair is wider at 26 inches to accommodate the added armrests. The arm chair also stands slightly taller at 38 1/4 inches compared to the 38-inch height of the side chair.
Mortise and tenon is a traditional woodworking technique where a projecting piece on one board fits into a corresponding hole on another. This creates a mechanical lock that is significantly stronger and more resistant to loosening over time than simple glued or nailed joints, ensuring the chair remains stable through years of daily use.
Yes, while the chair comes standard with a solid wood seat, you can choose to upgrade to an upholstered seat. We offer both fabric and leather options to provide additional cushioning and a softer feel during long meals.
Hardwoods like Hickory, Hard Maple, and Quarter Sawn White Oak are excellent choices for high-traffic areas due to their superior density and resistance to dents and scratches. If you prefer a smoother grain pattern, Hard Maple is ideal, while Quarter Sawn White Oak offers a distinct, durable grain character that is a hallmark of Mission-style furniture.
Yes, you can select optional felt or nylon glides to be attached to the bottom of the chair legs. Felt glides are recommended for hardwood floors to prevent scratching, while nylon glides work well on carpet or tile surfaces.
To maintain the finish, simply wipe the chair down with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and spills. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes with silicone, as these can build up over time and dull the natural luster of the wood.
