Want to help Choose my Dining Room Chairs?
Comments (4)Pal, great suggestions. I think Cherner is wonderful. Not sure how the wood tones match with the white laminate table. I guess I could find white cherner chairs (maybe). As for the Ant chair, it is interesting. I think I like the 4 leg vs 3 leg version BUT not sure that I want the stainless steel skinny legs. Interesting re the Thonet chair -- not what I would have expected. Jakebedy -- My budget is around $500 to $800 a chair (I'd be thrilled to spend less). I don't think I want metal -- I want to create some warmth. I like the Bertoia chairs but I want to be more narrow in the seat to make more room. Perhaps I do 2 arm chairs and the balance as side chairs (given the Oval -- it might be nice distinction). I'm ok with no padding but think that padding could be interesting as a color accent. Stacking is not necessary. 6 will always be out. 7 & 8 will double as the kids' desk chairs. Thanks!...See MoreHelp me choose dining room chairs to match table
Comments (12)Check out Carrington Court Chairs online. They are reasonably priced, you can pick from their fabrics or send your own. They have numerous styles to choose from. I ordered a chair for a desk we use occasionally. I sent my own fabric and am very pleased with the chair...nice upholstery job and they have good customer service....See MoreWhich swivel fabric would you choose for swivel chair to go w leather?
Comments (3)Based on what I see you have far too much furniture in the space, I assume the area is not on the order of 23 to 25 feet in each direction? With a dual recliner sofa, the center ottoman is redundant and in my opinion you have two too many chairs in the space. One sofa, two chairs and that's it - plus side tables But that's not hard and fast, scale drawings are needed to know for sure. Perhaps don't buy everything at once - start with the sofa and two chairs, then get it in the space and go from there....See MoreHelp me choose chairs to go with a 17th century dining table!
Comments (118)Hey fellow chair lovers! So, i made a decision 😬 i ordered 2 arch chairs from Sarah Ellison. And I got the big hairy light 😅 we obviously went over budget on the chairs, but they were just exactly right for me. I love the molded seat and postmodern column legs against the tables curves. we’ll do a bench at the back side (still considering a built in) Pictures below of the chairs, the light and a little mock up I did. Thanks again for such a fun and informative thread!...See Moreingrid_vc so. CA zone 9
