Seat upholstery. The pad comes in faux leather, soft nubuck or Camira Blazer wool, a woven wool contract fabric. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Base finishes

The Corona Handle Back Wire dining chair pairs a molded plywood shell with a slim solid-wire sled whose rear loop doubles as a pull handle, so staff and guests can slide it out from the table without grabbing the seat. The sled runners spread the load on hardwood, tile and low-pile rugs, which makes it a natural fit for cafes, breakfast nooks and busy dining rooms. A removable upholstered pad covers the seat and lower back, so you get a soft sit without losing the clean plywood profile. Choose bright chrome or a gold-tone wire for a warmer, more decorative table.

Planning notes

• Plan about 22 in of table edge per chair; the shell is 17 in wide.
• The handle loop sits behind the back, so leave a little extra clearance against walls.
• Sled runners glide on hard floors; add felt pads under the runners on soft wood.
• Shipping: in-stock chairs ship in 3 to 5 business days. If your seat and base combination is out of stock or on its way to our warehouse, please allow 10 to 15 weeks for it to ship.

Who it is not for

• Tall-stack storage: see the Corona wood dining chair for a four-leg alternative
• Outdoor use

Care

Wipe faux leather and PPM with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, then dry. Vacuum fabric seats regularly and blot spills right away. Wipe the metal base with a soft, dry cloth; skip abrasive pads and harsh cleaners, which dull plated and powder-coated finishes. Leather and fabric vary slightly in shade from batch to batch.

Frequently asked questions

How tall is the seat?

The seat is 17.8 in high on the plywood shell, the right height for a standard 28 to 30 in dining table.

What is the handle on the back for?

The wire sled continues up behind the backrest as a loop. It gives you something to grab when moving the chair and protects the plywood edge from bumps.

Is the sled base good on rugs?

Yes. Two continuous runners spread the weight, so the chair slides on low-pile rugs and does not dig in the way four narrow legs can.

How much weight does it hold?

It is rated for 300 lb.

Why do the prices differ?

Faux leather and nubuck pads cost less than Camira Blazer wool pads, and the gold wire base costs more than chrome.

Can the pad be removed?

Yes. The pad is separate from the plywood shell, so it can be taken off for cleaning or swapped for a new color later.
