Know before you buy
The arm chair measures 24 inches wide, while the side chair is 19 inches wide. Both models share the same 17.5-inch depth and 41.75-inch height, ensuring they look cohesive when paired together at a dining table.
The Saddle Scoop seat is contoured to follow the natural shape of the body, which helps distribute weight more evenly than a flat seat. This design provides ergonomic support, making it comfortable for longer periods of sitting.
Yes, you can customize the seat to suit your preference. You may opt for a solid wood seat to showcase the natural grain, or choose from various fabric and leather upholstery options for added softness.
The Mission edge is a specific profile detail on the seat's perimeter that features clean, straight lines and a slight bevel. It is a hallmark of traditional Amish craftsmanship, providing a structured, timeless look.
Because this chair is handcrafted from solid wood, it is built to withstand daily use for generations. Unlike mass-produced furniture using veneers or particle board, this solid construction resists warping and maintains its structural integrity over time.
