If you want to buy dining furniture that is both suitable and likeable; i.e. the kind that you can live happily with for years to come, it pays to put some thought into what you buy. When you talk about dining room chairs, there are so many choices, that you need to give careful consideration to both your requirements as well as likings: whether you want armchairs or chairs without arms, upholstered, wood or leather finish, dimensions, design, weight, portability etc. Dimensions: Make sure that the proportions of the dining room or area, are congruent with the size and dimensions of the dining table and consequently the dining chairs, so that the size of the room does not diminish the size of the dining room furniture or vice versa. The dining chairs should be sufficiently big to offer proper seating support (the chairs should ideally be a minimum width of 17 inches) and should be the correct height to match the height of the dining table. An often overlooked aspect of dining room chairs is their height: the optimum height of a dining chair is usually 18 or 19 inches. The general rule is that there ought to be a minimum of 12 inches between the top of the seat and the top of the table (usually the height of a dining table is 29 to 30 inches) Design: Consider whether you want armchairs or chairs without arms. In general, having armchairs at the dining table creates a more formal appearance. You can tone down the appearance of formality by having only two armchairs, at either end of the dining table leaving the rest of the chairs without arms. Also you need to consider how many chairs you need, which will depend largely upon the shape of the table (which in turn may depend on the shape of the room). If the dining table is rectangular, six chairs are usually required, whereas four may be the right number for a square table. Mixing and matching is also an option if you don’t like a very uniform or matched look. For instance you may pair a traditional table with contemporary chairs or a more contemporary table with old fashioned chairs. Finish: Choose with care the kind of surface that you want your dining chairs to have: certain surfaces are low maintenance and easy care while some are not. If you like upholstered finishes to your chairs but think that they could be very high maintenance, consider slip covers that go over your dining chairs saving them from stains, dust and dirt and other wear and tear. Some dining chairs also give you the option of removable seat cushions so that the seat covers can either be laundered or replaced. Weight: the weight of a dining chair should be enough so that it is steady and firm but also it should be light enough that it is not too difficult to pull to and from the table when being seated. A chair with a slatted back is easy to grip whereas a fully upholstered one is not as easy to get a grip of.
One component that leaves a powerful or ever lasting impression is that of the – furniture that is used. This is especially true with regard to the dining chair and dining table that are used.
To start with the variety of furniture that is available today is to quite simply put it – exhaustive. This very much holds true for dining chairs and tables too. Not only are dining chairs and tables characterized by the material that they are made of i.e. whether they are plastic or wooden. They are also characterized by the country, style etc. However it’s generally agreed that a wooden dining chair and wooden dining table have their own unique appeal. Description wise the reasons for this unique appeal can be rather ambiguous. The most accepted reason is that wood tends to add a natural and contemporary feel to the particular room.
When it comes to choosing the right set of furniture for your dining room; the choices are plenty. For those who want a matching set of furniture they have the option of buying a whole furniture set. The advantages of buying a whole furniture set is that it will include a matching set of drawers, mirrors, cupboards and most of all a dining table and a set of dining chairs to complement the whole look. However some people make like the similar look of all the furniture. On the other hand some may like to mix and match.
Mixing and matching involves combining a different type of dining chair with a different dining table. While this is may not be easy to get right, when there is a perfect balance – beauty in diversity can guarantee a second glance, from even the greatest of interior designers.
Conclusively selecting the right dining chair and dining table can add more than just looks to your room. This is because what you combine depicts your unique taste and correspondingly it’s a part of your character. So do your research before you decide on buying the right dining chair or dining table.
A parsons chair is a special kind of upholstered dining chair. The name has nothing to do with the clergy. The chair was named for its origin – it was created in Paris in the 1930s, by a designer at the famous Parsons School of Design.
When designing the chair, the Parsons School designers didn’t radically reinvent the idea of the chair (as, say, the Bauhaus did in Germany). Instead, the designers streamlined historical influences, kept what worked, threw away what didn’t, and created an enduring modern classic.
The main traits of the parsons chair – its naturalism, simplicity and linear look – are classic Modernist traits, but the style reflects 1800s Mission and Arts and Crafts styles, the Art Nouveau styles that emerged later, and the Art Deco that was contemporary at the time of the parsons chair’s design. The simplicity of the chair fits with these styles and a great variety of others, both classic and modern.
Originally, the parsons chair was meant to be used in a set with the parsons table, whose linear look reflects a similar aesthetic in the matching chair. However, in a bit of irony, the simplicity of both has led to them being adapted separately into many styles of furniture and decor. The result? Today, they are rarely seen together. The parsons style is so adaptable that many who own a parsons table or a parsons chair have no idea that companion pieces exist.
The parsons chair is virtually always crafted of hardwood, and features a slightly curving, squared backrest and legs. They are usually featured with slipcover upholstery that entirely covers the legs and gives the chair a solid, monumental appearance. This slipcover is optional or absent on many recent models.
Most parsons chairs nowadays are direct clones of the original Parsons School design. However, many recent variations exist, including versions with cabriole legs, Chippendale-influenced designs, shorter or taller designs, and versions with armrests, versions inspired more or less by Art Nouveau or Art Deco, and so on. The original Parsons School design was upholstered in leather, and this is still a very popular upholstery option, though microfabrics are increasingly used. The wide variety of options available today should ensure that you’ll be able to find one that’s right for you.
Due to its simplicity, comfort and ease of cleaning, the parsons chair remains enduringly popular, especially in restaurants. In fact, you might already own and enjoy one without realizing what it is. We hope that knowledge of this chair’s history should deepen your appreciation for this unique design.
