Know before you buy
Both versions share the same seat dimensions and backrest design, but the arm chair includes integrated wooden armrests for added support. The side chair is armless, making it a space-saving choice that tucks easily under most dining tables.
Hardwoods like Cherry and Walnut offer distinct grain patterns and rich natural tones, while species like Brown Maple provide a smooth, uniform surface ideal for painted or stained finishes. Rustic options, such as Rustic Cherry or Rustic Hickory, feature natural character marks like knots and mineral streaks for a more lived-in, organic aesthetic.
The Callahan Chair has a seat height of 17.5 inches. We recommend ensuring your table has at least 10 to 12 inches of clearance between the seat and the underside of the table apron to allow for comfortable leg room.
Yes, the backrest features a curved design with arched slats that follow the natural contour of the spine. With a back height of 24 inches from the seat, it provides substantial support for upright posture during extended use.
To maintain the finish, simply wipe the chairs down with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or furniture polishes with silicone, as these can build up over time and dull the natural luster of the wood.
