The right chair for your dining table in 3 questions

A dining table without chairs is like a bricked-up house: no view. Of course you want the table and sofa to match, but what about comfort? And is color possible? Furnified sorted it out for you.

What shape is your table?

Anyone can choose seats. At least, if you keep these things in mind when choosing your dining room chairs. Because in the end they should fit. Not only at but also around your table.

And that shape is important. Have you chosen one round model , then you have to remember that round requires space. In a smaller space, a model without corners is your salvation if you really want a separate dining table, but with the wrong chairs the whole quickly looks crammed. So keep your chairs a little more sober by choosing models without armrests.

Come one straight model at home, then a lot is possible. One golden piece of advice: chairs with armrests are slightly longer in size. Therefore, measure your table carefully, so you can be sure that you can slide your new dining room chair under the table. Space saved in no time and a neat dining area; you can thank us later.

Which style do you like?

A beautiful dining table is timeless and styleless, but if you still tend to have a certain look, then well-chosen dining room chairs can enhance the effect you are aiming for. Do you like that retro look? Then dining room chairs are in a deep warm color a good idea.

Fans of a sleek look like to choose a chair in monochrome colors, symmetrical in shape and with a sturdy base, such as the Otis and Schmid chairs.

How many seats do you need?

Cozy dining with friends or family is great fun, provided everyone has enough space to sit comfortably. Just measuring your table and then dividing it over the number of table mates is not a bad idea. Seventy centimeters per person is the average width for a relaxed sitting position.

Still not sure which direction you want to go? At Furnified you will find a real family of dining room chairs: meet Julia, Ruben, Hugo, Otis, Cedric, Charles and last but not least , our Swing chair.

 

Julia : ladies first, right? Graceful, elegant and a comfortable seat: that's all Julia needs to convince you. It is wonderful to sit on this eye-catcher in your interior, partly thanks to sufficient support in the back. The mix of materials provides an unprecedented versatility: put Julia in an eclectic interior and she will feel right at home.

Reuben : the ultimate retro chair for vintage and bohemian lovers. You can choose from a model with or without armrests. This chair gives your dining room a calm and warm look. It is available in a light oak or black frame.

Hugo : the not-so-classic-classic chair. We all know the model, but the velvet upholstery and the fine golden legs immediately give this topper an elegant touch. In a great color, it brightens up your dining room completely and offers the necessary comfort for a long evening of dining. A tip from Furnified: don't stick to one colour, but boost your dining table corner with a mix of Hugo's in different colours.

Charles : the robust dining room chair that is somewhat reminiscent of a robot. Don't worry, the oak frame, the leather seat and the back in rattan keep the whole in balance with their natural look. Charles makes the hearts of vintage design lovers and retro fans beat faster, although he also comes into his own in a rural or bohemian interior.

Otis : an industrial chair with a twist, or have you already seen velvet in combination with black metal legs? A great partner for a somewhat heavier table in metal or wood.

Cedric : the extremely comfortable dining room chair that finds its place in any interior. Graceful yet sturdy, for a modern or Scandinavian home. Cedric has a neutral look and is available in several colours.

The Swing Chair : we go out with a bang. The Swing chair is a classic in shape and style that should not be missing in this list or at a table in a modern interior. The simple shape gives this chair an unseen cachet. For the seat and backrest you can choose between leather or rattan, or why not a mix. A passe-partout with character and at an excellent price-quality ratio, if you ask us.

Choice enough to sit well. Whatever you choose, at Furnified you can count on a selection of premium furniture. View the entire collection of dining room chairs in one overview , so you can easily compare.
