Classic Armchair in Solid Teak
The Classic dining chair with arms. It shares the tall contoured slat back and 17.25 inch seat of the side chair and adds shaped teak arms, which is what most people want at the head and foot of a table.
- Shaped arms in the same solid teak. The arms are cut from the same stock as the frame, not bolted on as an afterthought, and they are contoured to sit under a forearm.
- Still only 23 inches wide. Wide enough for the arms, narrow enough that two of them do not take over a six foot table.
- A 17.25 inch seat and a 35 inch back. Identical to the Classic Side Chair, so a table set with both sits level and reads as one group.
- Unfinished teak throughout. No coating to maintain. Seal it once a season if you want to hold the honey color, or leave it and let it silver.

Materials and Construction
Frame. Solid teak, sustainably sourced. Teak is used outdoors because of what is already in it: a high natural oil content that resists water absorption, insects and rot without any coating.
Finish. Supplied unfinished in natural teak. Left alone, the surface oxidizes to a soft silver gray over roughly one season. That change is cosmetic and does not affect the strength of the wood.

Care and Maintenance
Teak. No treatment is required. To keep the honey tone rather than let it silver, apply a teak sealer once a season to a dry frame. Do not use a pressure washer, which tears the soft grain out from between the harder rings. For general cleaning, warm water, mild soap and a soft brush worked along the grain.
Off season. The frame can stay outside all year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I buy armchairs or side chairs?
The usual pattern is two armchairs at the ends of the table and side chairs down the long sides. The armchair is 23 inches wide against the side chair's 19.25, so all armchairs costs you a seat or two on a long table.
Will the arms clear my table?
The arms sit above the 17.25 inch seat and the chair is 26.5 inches deep. On a table with a 29 inch top and no deep apron the chair tucks in normally. A table with a thick skirt may stop the arms short.
Does it arrive assembled?
No. The carton is only a few inches deep, so the piece is packed flat and goes together on site. Work on a soft surface, start every fastener before you tighten any of them, and the frame will pull up square.
Will the teak turn gray?
It will, over roughly one season outdoors, unless you seal it. The silver gray patina is surface oxidation and does not weaken the wood. If you prefer the original honey tone, a teak sealer applied once a season holds it.
Can I leave it outside all winter?
Yes. Teak is used on boat decks for the same reason it is used here: the natural oils in the wood resist water, insects and rot without any coating. Nothing needs to come indoors.
Is a cushion available for it?
The chair is designed to be used bare and the seat and back are both shaped for it. Any standard outdoor dining seat pad sized to a 19 inch seat will sit on it if you prefer padding.
What else is in the Classic collection?
Side and arm dining chairs, a rocking chair, benches in four, five and six foot lengths, a square end table and a coffee table. All are the same solid teak and the same slat detailing, so they can be mixed freely.
