RESTAURANT CHAIRS
Restaurant chairs can be the making or breaking of an establishment, determining its success from the outlook. Due to the number of chairs that can be found in a restaurant, it is important to get the style correct as they provide much of the visual impact, being out in the open for everyone to see. It is for this reason alone that the design of bistro chairs is pivotal to the overall look and feel of the surrounding area.
There is a huge range of materials on offer, with restaurant chairs being built on wooden and metal frames. Wooden frames are ideal for traditional, rustic decor and provide a natural touch that makes them superbly desirable, with traditional items such as the A18 bistro chair that was designed in the 1800s, but you can also find modern styles such as the Purcell dining chair, which has a tall backrest topped by a feature handhold, tactile and high in visual impact.
These wooden chairs sport strong legs that are ideal for all floor surfaces and can be found in beautiful finishes such as oak, light and striking or dark walnut, with a rich appearance that is full of body. They can also come in varnished or satin finishes such as black and cognac, giving even further diversity and allowing you to create your perfect look.
Metal frames can also be found as four legged items, but they become really interesting when the strengths of the material is exploited, making such jaw dropping pieces as the Renoir dining chair, which has a slender cantilevered base that balances the seat above, providing added comfort and springiness. They can be found either chrome plated, with a durable polished mirror finish, or in brushed stainless steel, hand worked into a contemporary brushed surface that looks superb amongst modern appliances and fittings.
Another important point to factor in is the comfort of restaurant chairs, as relaxed patrons are happy patrons, which in turn means a happy environment and an attractive restaurant. This is where padded chairs come in, with those such as the Francesca offering both function and fashion. The tall segmented back and chunky seat cushion showcase high density foam padding beneath the soft faux upholstery, cosseting the body and ensuring that it is comfortable even after extended periods of use. Padded items are also available in real leather, such as the Boyet, giving a more resilient surface as well as undeniable luxury and opulence.
Beside these fixed height dining chairs, you can also find several gas lift chairs, which have a hydraulic mechanism standing in a circular base, complete with rubberised floor guard beneath. The position of the seat can be altered; raised or lowered as well as turned through 360 degrees, perfect for tables or counters of an unusual height and accommodating for smaller occupants.Whatever your theme and decor, and whatever type of food you serve, these robust and easy to maintain restaurant chairs are the ideal addition for any eatery.
