Know before you buy
The side chair has a width of 20.75 inches, while the arm chair is wider at 24 inches to accommodate the armrests. Both chairs share the same overall height of 41 inches, ensuring a consistent look when mixed around a dining table.
The sculpted wood seat is ergonomically contoured to support your posture, making it surprisingly comfortable for extended meals. However, if you prefer extra cushioning, the fabric or leather upholstery options provide a softer feel and allow you to add a pop of color or texture to your dining room.
All available hardwoods are high-quality, but species like Hard Maple, Hickory, and Quarter Sawn White Oak are exceptionally dense and resistant to dents and scratches. These are excellent choices if you expect heavy daily use or have a busy household.
Felt glides are ideal for hard surfaces like hardwood or tile, as they prevent scratching and allow the chair to slide quietly. Nylon glides are better suited for carpeted floors, as they provide the necessary durability to move smoothly without snagging.
Yes, the back splat is specifically designed with a broad, curved profile to follow the natural contour of your spine. This shape provides firm, consistent support for your lower back, which helps maintain comfort during longer periods of sitting.
Absolutely. It is a common design practice 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, they will look cohesive and intentional.
