Discover the latest trends in dining chairs
Dining chairs that complement your dining table
From high-back dining chairs to stools, occasional chairs and bench seats, you will find the perfect setting arrangement to suit your dining table in Mocka’s beautiful online showroom. Select from traditional to contemporary designs in luxe finishes such as wood-look veneers, bright monochromes, leather-look and textured fabrics. Discover on-trend styles that complement your table.
Create an open concept dining area with bench seats
Open-concept dining areas are a great way to utilise all your space. With a large group, it can be fun and convenient to seat some guests on barstools at the counter and others at the dining room table. A bench seat along one side of the table is not only stylish, but it helps you fit in a few extra settings. Plus, you can tuck it under the table afterwards to create space to move around it.
Dining chairs to suit your interior look
You are only limited by your imagination when it comes to a dining table arrangement. For a look that is right on trend, the Pia chair makes a sophisticated addition and works with any interior, from country to coastal. For an abstract contemporary design, the Xavier adds drama and intrigue. But for the sophisticated look of an oak dining chair (at a fraction of the cost), try the beautiful new Leon collection.
For entertaining large groups, opt for a dining bench
For the latest trend in dining chairs, opt for a dining bench. A bench looks fabulous amongst a combination of other chairs and allows you to sit more places at the table. Best of all, the dining bench is easy to clean, versatile enough to be transported wherever additional seating is needed, and popular amongst the kids. Combine with high-back dining chairs for a mixed seating arrangement.
From rattan look chairs to wooden stools, discover your perfect dining chair
The Mocka showroom and inspiration pages introduce you to a world of dining chair options to help make your dining area the heart of the home. Customers love the classic style of the Hamptons chair, which combines effortlessly with the dining bench for a timeless feel. Likewise, the beautiful rattan-look dining chair works particularly well with a coastal or laid-back bohemian aesthetic.
For an urban-chic aesthetic, the Porter dining chairs provide a pop of colour that accents the room. The Livi collection includes dining chairs, occasional chairs, barstools and benches in ash veneer and soft tonal fabrics for a natural feel. This chic collection complements other Scandi or Mid-century furniture.
Dining furniture to suit your home décor
Create a seamless flow throughout the home by pairing your dining decor with the rest of your furniture and homewares. The in-house design team at Mocka crafts versatile collections to complement and coordinate with each other. That means you can pair your dining furniture with your living room decor, like coffee tables and side tables, or your bedroom furniture, like headboards and dressers. You can even make a home office nook amongst an open-plan space with bookcases and storage pieces like buffets, sideboards and cabinets that look fantastic anywhere.
Choosing the right size dining chairs for your family
Whilst armchairs might be appropriate if you live as a couple, larger families might require more space-saving solutions. The Harper chair is a perfect mid-sized chair that suits almost all environments (and looks super stylish). Stools and bench seats are an easy way to maximise space. Before purchasing chairs to fit your table, we recommend measuring, reading the specifications, and ensuring that you have enough room to move around once the chairs are in place.
Ideal dining chairs for a round table
Consider those sitting at your table and what kind of seating will suit them. A combination of comfort and style is ideal. The curved back chair is popular for round tables to maintain the natural, curved aesthetic. Styles like the Porter, Leon and Livi dining chairs are an obvious choice.
Coordinating your dining chairs and your sofas
Cushioned fabric chairs provide a soft texture that pairs beautifully with the upholstery of your sofa, armchairs and ottomans. Styles like the Livi, Austin and Porter blend seamlessly in an open plan living/dining space.
Pairing light dining chairs with a dark table
Create a custom dining setting that shows your unique style. Choosing different shades within a colour palette adds drama and interest yet maintains a consistent and intentional look. Pair your light grey dining chairs with a dark brown wood-look table or dark grey chairs with a sleek white tabletop. You’re the designer, so get creative!

FAQ’s:
How do I choose a dining chair?
Firstly, carefully consider your space and the number of people you intend to seat. Remember, you will need room to move around the dining table once the seating is in place. Then consider who will be occupying the seats and what style will suit them best. Lastly, browse through our inspirational showroom and discover the styles you love.
What is a good seat depth for a dining chair?
Mocka dining chairs range from approximately 38-46cm in depth, making dining comfortable. The best size for you will depend on the size of the user. Of course, stools and occasional chairs will be different. Check the specifications on each product item to ensure they are a good fit for your dining room or dining area.
