dining chairs
Mealtime furniture pieces
Dining chairs are chairs designed to accompany a dining table, typically featuring a straight back and seat height suited for eating at table level.
Most dining sets include four to eight matching chairs.
The term distinguishes these from armchairs, recliners, or other seating: We need to reupholster the dining chairs.
