Spindle Chairs with Arms

Updated

Unlike upholstered models or those with a solid back, spindle chairs with arms can let you lie back without getting in the way of your room’s visual flow. They’ll maintain an airy feel around your table or seating area, which is especially excellent news in smaller settings. To help you find the right spindle chairs for your needs and decors, our interior design experts have scouted for a wide range of stylish models.

Vintage spindle back chairs in an accent color

Hooker Furniture

Made of both solid and manufactured wood, this set of two spindle chairs with arms includes a particularly comfy backrest. You can choose between a vintage chalky white and sky-high azure blue finish, both with a charming distressed feel.

Designer Advice:

If you’re using them as dining chairs, be sure to choose a hue that would complement your room’s palette but also create a balanced contrast against the actual table. If they’re part of your living room seating area or a reading corner, you can turn them into an accent piece by opting for a bolder shade instead.

Rattan spindle chair

Bay Isle Home™

This eye-catching spindle chair with arms is rather compact (just under 22” in width) and immediately stands out thanks to the contrast created between the dark metal legs and the light rattan seat, with its back blending into the armrests.

$214.99 $451.59

Designer Advice:

Rattan designs—especially in light finishes—are perfect to introduce a natural feel that’s more exotic and relaxed than traditionally rustic. For example, you could choose some spindle chairs with arms and a back in this material if you have bohemian, eclectic, or even coastal interiors.

Tall spindle chair with arms

Hooker Furniture

A guaranteed show-stopper, this set of two spindle chairs with arms includes a polyester/linen seat and a rubberwood frame with an extremely high back. It brings its entire design to a whopping 46”: extra comfy (especially for tall family members) and perfect to make a statement.

$2118 $1479

Designer Advice:

We mainly recommend spindle chairs with such a high backrest in particularly large rooms that feel quite breezy and airy. This is because the backrest will get in the way of your visual flow: in wide rooms, this is a chance to make a decorative statement, but it could result in a cluttered and cramped feel in smaller settings.
