Know before you buy
The side chair is designed for dining tables and features a 20-inch width, while the arm chair includes integrated armrests and is slightly wider at 22.5 inches to accommodate the arm structure. Both models share the same seat height of 18 inches and overall back height.
The tongue and groove construction creates a secure, interlocking joint between the seat and the frame. This method provides superior structural stability compared to simple butt joints, ensuring the chair remains sturdy even with daily use.
Wood seats are the most durable and easiest to clean, making them ideal for busy households. If you prefer comfort, leather is a resilient, wipeable option, while fabric offers the most variety but may require more maintenance depending on the textile choice.
Yes, the Jacoby Chair is available in multiple wood species and stain finishes. We recommend ordering wood samples if you are trying to color-match existing pieces, as wood grain and stain absorption can vary significantly.
The chair features a 25.5-inch back height with vertical Mission slats designed to provide firm, upright support. While it is not a reclined lounge chair, the Shaker-inspired design is crafted to promote good posture during meals or desk work.
