Know before you buy
The wood types vary in grain pattern, hardness, and how they accept stain. For example, Oak and Quartersawn White Oak feature prominent, distinct grain patterns, while Brown Maple and Cherry offer a smoother, more uniform appearance. Hard Maple is exceptionally dense and durable, making it ideal for high-traffic dining areas.
Because these chairs are handcrafted by Amish artisans, they are typically delivered fully assembled and ready for use. This construction method ensures superior structural integrity compared to flat-pack furniture.
Brown Maple is generally the best choice if you prefer a uniform, consistent stain finish. It has a tighter grain structure that absorbs stain evenly, whereas woods like Oak have more texture and natural variation that can lead to a more rustic, multi-toned look.
Yes, the Spencer Side Chair is built using premium hardwoods and traditional joinery techniques designed for long-term durability. It is engineered to withstand the rigors of daily use while maintaining its structural stability over many years.
The classic design of the Spencer Side Chair is intentionally versatile, allowing it to pair well with a wide range of table styles. Because you can customize the wood and stain, you can easily coordinate the finish to match your existing dining table.
