Know before you buy
The side chair measures 18 3/4 inches wide, while the arm chair is slightly wider at 22 1/2 inches to accommodate the armrests. Both versions share the same 17-inch depth and 39 1/2-inch total height.
The wood seat features a scooped design, which is contoured to better fit the body than a flat surface. If you prefer extra cushioning, you can opt for the fabric or leather upholstery upgrade, which includes a foam cushion.
All finish options are designed for residential use, but the conversion varnish provides the highest level of protection against moisture and daily wear. Stained and painted finishes offer a variety of aesthetic looks, while the distressed option adds a pre-worn, rustic character to the wood.
Yes, it is common to place arm chairs at the heads of the table and side chairs along the lengths. Because they share the same design language and height specifications, they will look cohesive when used together.
To keep the wood in good condition, dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners. Since it is solid wood, it is best to keep the chair away from direct heat sources or extreme humidity changes to prevent the wood from expanding or contracting.
The arm height is 25 1/4 inches. You should measure the clearance from your floor to the underside of your dining table apron to ensure the chairs will slide in comfortably.
