Before buying dining chairs for an existing dining table it is best to measure up. As a rule on a rectangular table one seat should allow 60cm of room so for a table 200cm long you would be able to fit 3 either side with the option of a person at each end so would sit 8 un total. On a round dining table it should be about 75cm. This ensures each guest has plenty of room.

Things to consider are comfort and functionality if the chairs are used every day or if only used on special occasions go for something stylish over practical to give your dining area the wow factor. It is always best to spend that bit extra for a quality piece that will last and ware longer.

If your interior is bold its probably best to go for a simple and plain dining chair that wont fight with other patterns in the room or if you have a neutral colour scheme got for something bright and bold or even have a mixed range of chairs to give your room character with a quirky feel.. In our online store we have a wide range of modern dining chairs from acrylic plastic to leather or wood. With wooden dining tables there are no hard and fast rules any chairs go but it is best not to mix wood colours.
