Know before you buy
The side chair measures 19 1/4 inches wide, while the arm chair is wider at 24 inches to accommodate the armrests. Both chairs share the same seat height of 18 inches and overall depth of 22 1/2 inches.
These chairs are built using traditional mortise and tenon joinery, a time-honored technique that creates a strong, interlocking connection between wood pieces. This method, combined with solid hardwood construction, ensures the chairs remain stable and durable for years of daily use.
Yes, you can select a standard solid wood seat or upgrade to an upholstered version. We offer a variety of fabric options, including premium and Crypton performance fabrics, as well as genuine and ultra-leather choices.
You can customize your order by adding either felt or nylon glides to the base of the chair legs. Felt glides are ideal for protecting hardwood or tile floors from scratches, while nylon glides work well on carpeted surfaces.
The splat back is artfully shaped to follow the natural curve of the human spine. This ergonomic design provides consistent support, making the chair comfortable for extended periods of sitting during long dinners or gatherings.
Hardwoods like Hard Maple, Hickory, and Quarter Sawn White Oak are exceptionally dense and resistant to dents, making them excellent choices for high-traffic areas. Softer woods like Brown Maple are beautiful but may show wear more easily over time.
