And despite these properties, wood primarily brings the following:

  • warmth
  • uniqueness
  • robustness
  • sustainability
  • versatility
  • naturalness

Dining roomSolid wood is still popular: elegant, but not too strict, modern, but still traditional, quite easy to care for, but still durable and resistant - what could you expect more from a piece of furniture? Once you have found the perfect model for yourself, it will serve for decades (and maybe even over generations). If the material also comes from a responsible forestry, you also support environmental protection.

Incidentally, the Institute for Non -Invasive Diagnostics by Joanneum Research in Weiz (today “Human Research Institute for Health Technology and Prevention Research”) already hasIn a studythe positive effect of wood on mind and health.

Combine the chairs perfectly in the dining room

There is the right thing for every furnishing style. You just have to be clear about what you want to achieve:

Many designs for many styles

While they support the simplicity in the minimalist facility despite their clear lines, modern dining room chairs made of solid wood also bring the necessary warmth that creates the right level of comfort in clean rooms.

Should it be a hint of noble? Then padded chairs (also like rotating chairs) are just the thing in an elegant gray, black or anthracite or in a warm beige or brown.

Vintage or Scandi facilities are very good with white wooden chairs, while simple wood in an old look is suitable for rustic flair.

Would you like to blow up the warm wood with a contrast? Especially in the industrial style, the combination with black metal is in great demand and looks modern, chic and also pleasantly rough.

If chairs made of wood are preferred in natural color, the focus is particularly on the unique grain that makes every piece of furniture a real unique piece. This is highlighted by a simple oiling in order to be able to come into play even better.

A wonderful plus point of the simplicity of the material is that it can also be combined wonderfully with a wide variety of colors and with different materials. So you can stay with the simple look as you like or make the furnishings more lively and versatile.

  • Mix & match made of different materials

This is also the case with the cushions already mentioned: wooden stool legs and a seat made of elegant textile. But leather also fits wonderfully with the natural material, just like metal - as desired in silver for a touch of elegance or in black for industrial flair. In this way you can create interesting style breaks.

If you are particularly brave, you can tooMix different stool models.

  • Wood as the main material, but in different versions

A somewhat more subtle variant of the Mix & Match would be to stay with the same material for all chairs, but to choose different types of wood. Two chairs made of oak, two from acacia and again two from Mango wood, for example? Or how about an accent from a different colored dining table?

In general, it is advisable to choose similar wood color in order not to create too inconsistent contrasts. However, if you opt for larger color contrasts, stay with a maximum of three different tones.

Holz has the reputation of being complicated in care. And it may be that this applies to outdoor furniture, but these are also exposed to the weather influences-and that is a completely different challenge again.

Inside, on the other hand, you benefit from constant temperatures and missing rain and wind - your dining room chairs made of solid wood will last long and stay flawless as long as you only give you the following pampering moments:

  • Wipe dust regularly:Especially at a large dining table, not all chairs are used every day. Some collect dust, others are sometimes dirty by crumbs, sometimes through greasy children's hands. The surfaces are therefore wiped off with a damp cloth during the normal cleaning routine.You can find more cleaning tips for wood here.
  • Re -oil: Wood is sealed by oils or varnishes, which protects it from the permanent penetration of dirt. By friction when sitting, these layers are gradually removed and must therefore be refreshed.

And that's it! You may still be able to attach so -called felt gliders under your chair legs. This is particularly advantageous on parquet or laminate so that there are no scratches when the chairs are pushed.
