Kendall White Arm Chair with Black Legs

While white upholstery offers a crisp, contemporary look, maintenance is a common consideration for active households. Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend immediate attention to spills by blotting with a clean cloth. For general maintenance, the solid-patterned fabric can be spot-cleaned using a soft rag with warm water and a mild detergent. For long-term protection, especially in homes with children or pets, consider a fabric protectant to help the material resist stains and wear.

To ensure a comfortable fit, we recommend measuring your table's height and the clearance under the tabletop apron. This armchair features a standard seat height of 18 inches, which typically provides the ideal 10 to 12 inches of legroom when paired with standard 28- to 30-inch high dining tables. The curved arm design is specifically tailored to slide easily under most table frames, allowing you to maximize floor space when the chairs are not in use.

This chair is engineered for both support and stability. It features a solid, fully upholstered back and integrated curved arms that provide ergonomic support for the upper body during long dinner parties. The foundation is built with tapered wood legs in a black finish, providing a sturdy, reliable base. The contemporary, tailored upholstery is wrapped over padded cushioning, ensuring the seat maintains its shape and comfort levels over years of daily use.

For optimal flow in your dining room, our layout experts recommend leaving between 36 and 48 inches of clearance from the edge of the table to the nearest wall or piece of furniture, such as a sideboard. This distance ensures that guests can easily pull the 23-inch deep chairs out to sit or stand without feeling restricted, a hallmark of a well-planned and functional dining space.

Absolutely. Using these armchairs as "captain’s chairs" at the head and foot of a rectangular or oval table is a sophisticated way to anchor your dining set. The Kendall collection also offers matching armless side chairs, allowing you to create a cohesive yet dynamic look by mixing styles. The black finish on the legs provides a versatile anchor that pairs beautifully with a wide variety of wood or glass-top dining tables.

Yes, this armchair is an excellent choice for urban living and smaller footprints. With a width of 21 inches, it offers the comfort of an armchair without the bulk of traditional formal seating. The tapered leg style creates an "open-frame" look, which allows light to pass through and helps a small dining area feel more spacious and airy rather than crowded.
