Finding chairs

When it comes to choosing furniture chairs are often the last item to be considered, yet they are an essential requirement in any room where people intend to spend much time. Planning ahead will avoid the surprisingly common mistake of buying unsuitable and/or expensive chairs as an afterthought to your main furniture purchases.

Background

The chair, as opposed to a stool or bench, has been a common item in most households since Elizabethan times. Its styling and development, particularly since the 19th Century, has been a good reflection of the culture of the relevant period.

In recent times perhaps the greatest developments have been within the lounge chair and office chair sectors, with the emphasis in both being upon increasing adjustability to suit the comfort and needs of the individual. These are both highly specialist market sectors producing furniture in various materials such as metal and plastic. As such they do not really fit within our offer of good quality wood tables, chairs and cabinet furniture.

Options available

At Right Price Furniture, we supply kitchen chairs, dining chairs and bedroom chairs. There is also a small selection of rocking chairs and folding chairs. The range of styles is almost as great as the number of chairs. For contemporary styles there are the Oakhampton wooden or Richmond upholstered ranges.

Classic wooden chairs are well covered, with collections such as the farmhouse, spindle and fiddle back chairs. Shaker and New England styles are listed and those seeking modernist, minimalist or Art Deco-style chairs should find a good selection from which to choose such as the Wealden Lisbon solid oak chair and the Boston Leather Carver.
