Know before you buy
The arm chair includes integrated armrests that sit at a height of 26 inches, providing extra support and a more formal look. The side chair is armless, making it a space-saving option that tucks more easily under dining tables.
While all options are solid hardwoods, species like Red Oak and Hard Maple are exceptionally dense and resistant to dents. Softer woods like Brown Maple offer a smoother grain pattern, which is ideal if you prefer a consistent finish when staining.
Yes, the upholstered options provide a cushioned surface that is generally more comfortable for extended use than the solid wood seat. If you prioritize comfort for long dinners, fabrics like microfiber or genuine leather are excellent choices.
The seat height is 18 inches, which is standard for most dining tables. However, if you choose the arm chair, ensure your table apron provides at least 26 inches of clearance to allow the arms to slide underneath.
To maintain the finish, simply dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or wax polishes, as these can build up over time and dull the natural luster of the wood.
Yes, every Chesterton Chair is made to order. You can select any of the available wood species and pair them with your preferred upholstery fabric or a solid wood seat to create a custom look that fits your specific interior.
