Know before you buy
This chair is designed for children who have outgrown a high chair but still need a seat that brings them to a comfortable height at the dining table. With a seat height of 21 1/2 inches, it is best suited for toddlers and young children up to early grade school age.
A standard dining chair seat is typically 18 inches high. This youth chair features a 21 1/2-inch seat height, which provides the necessary lift to help children reach the tabletop comfortably while dining.
Oak is a dense, heavy hardwood known for its prominent grain pattern and exceptional durability, making it ideal for high-traffic areas. Cherry is slightly softer but highly prized for its smooth, fine grain and its tendency to darken and develop a rich patina over time.
No, this chair is handcrafted using traditional joinery techniques and arrives fully assembled. It is built to be sturdy and stable right out of the box.
The chair is finished with a standard varnish that protects the wood from spills and daily wear. Simply wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth as needed, and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or excessive water to preserve the finish.
