Finding Chairs For Your Timber Dining Table
A solid timber dining table is a great choice for any home. Not only will a timber table last for many years, but it will also look fantastic. However, one problem which people sometimes face when installing a timber dining table is finding chairs which match or complement it. Using chairs which do not complement your timber dining table can really ruin the look and appeal of a room. Below is a guide to the different options you have when looking for chairs for your timber dining room table.
Consider custom chairs
If your desire is for the chairs to match the timber table, this may be the option for you. A bespoke furniture manufacturer should be able to match the wood used to construct the dining room table with the wood they use to construct the chairs. However, because the matching and construction process takes a lot of time and effort, commissioning the construction of custom chairs is likely to be the most expensive choice. If you are able to track down the company or individual who constructed your dining room table, you can ask them if they are able to produce a set of matching chairs.
Modify other chairs
During your search for the perfect set of chairs to complete your dining room table, you may come across other sets of chairs which you like the look of but which are not a perfect match. For example, you may find a set of chairs which are the correct style but which are a different shade. If this is the case, you could consider painting chairs a neutral colour so they do not look out of place around your timber dining room table.
Consider metal chairs
While it is traditional to pair wooden chairs with timber tables, this rule isn't set in stone. If you are having problems finding wooden chairs which are the right style or colour, you could always opt for metal seats instead. Metal and wood can create a very pleasing contrast when placed next to each other. However, you should be aware that metal chairs can cause damage to the legs of a timber dining table.
