We’ve been on the hunt for the perfect dining room chairs for our current project at Pheasant Pointe. Our clients really love the classic CH24 Wishbone chair, but for a family with small kids around, the woven seat is not a great option. After a lot of deliberation we chose Anthropologie’s Leather Hagen Dining Chair. It embodies the low-slung sleek lines of Danish Modernism but the leather makes it ultra comfy and, more importantly, cleanable! I think they’re the perfect choice! It’s also available in velvet and cozy boucle.
While we were looking for our Goldilocks “just right” chair, we found SO many other great options - check them out! (Make sure to scroll to the bottom for a bonus chair!)
The original CH24 Wishbone Chair designed by Hans J. Wegner for Carl Hansen & Søn in 1949. Available in a wide range of colors and material, staring at $947
Drumawillen Side Chair - this is a fantastic budget-friendly option - a set of two chairs is under $200! This is actually a knockoff of another Carl Hansen chair - CH20, The Elbow Chair.
Rylie Dining Chair from Anthropologie - $298.00 - Doesn’t this chair look so comfy? I love the leather (available in 4 colors) with the contrasting top stitching.
Savis Chair by Article - $299 - I just love this chair - it was a close runner up to the chair we ended up selecting!
Ripple Chair by Industry West - $199 - Not only is the shape of this chair so cool, I love the visual lightness of it as well. It’s available in four great colors, too!
Keva Upholstered Dining Chair by Pottery Barn - $279 - First - this color! So gorgeous - this chair would be great in both formal and informal dining areas. Really pretty.
Baldwin Dining Armchair by Williams-Sonoma - $395 - This is a great update to the original Wishbone Chair - it maintains the line of the chair but feels a little more grounded.
Taika Leather Dining Chair by Safavieh - $292 for a set of 2 - How cool is this chair? Really great shape combined with leather webbing? Love it. Would also be great as a foyer chair!
Wexler Dining Chair by Target - You guys, these chairs are a STEAL! $161 for a set of 2. This update to the Wishbone Chair might be my favorite yet - the solid seat, the fun colors? Love them!
BONUS CHAIR! It didn’t make the composite, but this chair - it’s a beauty! Kai Arm Chair from All Modern - $411 - This chair is so simple, no energy is wasted on anything unnecessary, and yet it still has so much style.
