Curved Back Dining Chairs

A straight-backed chair is fine for a quick breakfast, but a curved back dining chair is what keeps people at the table long after the plates are cleared. The backrest follows the shape of your body and wraps slightly around your sides, so you feel supported rather than perched.

Our range of modern curved dining chairs includes barrel, wraparound and open-back designs in faux leather, boucle and woven fabric, on brushed bronze, gold and black legs.

Why Choose a Curved Back Dining Chair?

• Better support: the curve cradles your lower back and sides through long meals
• Softer look: rounded backs break up the straight lines of a rectangular table and square room
• Looks good from behind: in an open-plan home, the back of the chair is what you see most
• Pairs well with round tables: curved chairs follow the shape of a round or oval top

Barrel & Wraparound Chairs

A barrel chair has a deeper curve that wraps further around you, almost like a small armchair. The Hallie is a good example: its wraparound back comes in beige boucle, graphite textured fabric and faux leather, so you can pick the finish that suits your home.

Open & Shaped Backs

If you want the curve without the bulk, an open or shaped back keeps things lighter. The Milan has a curved backrest on black metal legs with gold accents, in black faux leather or emerald green velvet. The Prada adds a quilted rhombus pattern to a high curved back.

Choose Your Material

Most curved designs come in more than one finish. The Selena, for example, is available in faux leather, boucle and woven fabric.

• Leather dining chairs: wipe-clean and easy for families
• Boucle dining chairs: soft, textured and cosy
• Fabric dining chairs: warm, breathable and comfortable

Curved Chairs & Round Tables

Curved chairs and round tables are a natural pair, since the rounded backs follow the line of the tabletop and the whole setting looks balanced from every side. Browse our round dining tables to complete the look.

Checking the Fit

Curved chairs can be a little wider than straight ones, so allow about 60cm of table edge per chair. Also check the gap between the seat and the underside of your table. You'll want around 25–30cm for comfortable legroom.
