What kind of chairs for this dining table?
I purchased this dining table (in the finish shown on the second pic) and I’m just not sure what kind of chairs would look best with it. The house is Mediterranean style, we’re trying to keep some of that global flavor without being overdone or stuffy. Would chairs with turned legs look best, or would they be competing with the table legs? The floors are a similar dark brown wood - should I try to match the finish?
Thank you!

Comments (4)There is no average height for the table and chairs.There're height standards for all the furniture. The standard height for the table is 30" and for the chair, it is 18". The depth of the table should be atleast 36". It might be a little broad say 42" but not more. The length if the table is defined with the seats required. The chair seat size should be 16" with the back height be 30" atleast. It might be more depending upon the design of the table....See Morejustlol

4 years agoLove the table and hope you enjoy many beautiful meals at it! Let the legs of the table be the design focus. Since the table and floor are both dark wood, I think you should use a simple light upholstered chair. The legs can be simple, straight and in a lighter wood finish.
Here are some quick options I found here on the Houzz site:
All the best to you in your search!

4 years agoGreat table! I agree with simple legs, but maybe a softer upholstered chair to compliment the curves.
