Buying guide
How to Choose the Perfect Chair

Chairs are where design meets daily life. Whether you're selecting dining chairs, accent chairs, or lounge seating, the right chair balances comfort, proportion, and style — becoming both a functional seat and a design statement that defines the character of a room.

Dining chairs
Dining chairs should be 17-19 inches from floor to seat for standard 30-inch tables. Leave 24-26 inches per chair along the table edge. Upholstered seats add comfort for long dinners; wood and metal frames suit casual, high-traffic dining.
Accent & lounge chairs
Accent chairs fill empty corners, flank fireplaces, or create reading nooks. Choose a seat depth and height that matches your body proportions. Low-slung lounge chairs suit casual living rooms; taller-backed chairs work in formal settings.
Upholstery & material
Performance fabrics resist stains and fading — ideal for family rooms and dining. Leather and velvet add luxury. Bouclé and linen lend soft texture. Match the material's durability to the room's usage level.
Frame & leg style
Tapered wood legs convey mid-century warmth. Metal legs suit industrial and contemporary interiors. Skirted chairs add a traditional, soft silhouette. Let the leg style complement your table and room architecture.

Common questions
Chairs FAQ
How many dining chairs fit at my table?
Measure your table perimeter and allow 24-26 inches per chair. A 72-inch rectangular table comfortably seats 6 (3 per side). Round tables: a 48-inch diameter seats 4; a 60-inch diameter seats 6.
What fabric is best for dining chairs?
Performance fabrics (like Crypton or Sunbrella) are the most practical for dining chairs — they resist stains, spills, and fading. Leather wipes clean easily. Save delicate fabrics for low-traffic accent chairs.
How do I choose between an armchair and a side chair?
Arm chairs work well at the table heads and provide a more commanding presence. Side chairs (without arms) fit more compactly along the table sides. A classic approach: arm chairs at the ends, side chairs along the sides.
Can I mix different chair styles at my dining table?
Absolutely. Mixing styles is a popular design approach. A common method is a different statement chair at the table heads with matching side chairs along the length. Keep finishes or upholstery complementary for cohesion.
What chair brands do you carry?
We carry chairs from Arteriors, Currey and Company, Palecek, Noir, and other designer furniture brands.
Do chairs ship free?
Yes, free standard shipping on all orders over $199 across Canada. Upholstered and oversized chairs may ship via freight with white-glove delivery available.
