What Type of Chair is Best for Round Dining Table?

When choosing chairs for a round patio dining table, comfort and proportion are key. Here are some ideal options:

• Armless chairs: They maximize seating around the table and offer easy movement.

• Wicker or rattan chairs: Perfect for patios; they’re weather-resistant and offer a casual aesthetic.

• Cushioned metal or wood chairs: These bring a more refined look while remaining functional for outdoor use.
  
  

Tip: Make sure the chair height complements the table height (generally, a 10–12 inch difference between seat and tabletop).
