Dining sets with dark grey velvet chairs
Dark grey (charcoal) chairs are the most practical velvet colour for families: marks are barely visible and the tone anchors a light table. Every set in this collection is shown with dark grey velvet chairs, but on most product pages you can switch the chair colour, so use this as a starting point.
What table works with dark grey velvet chairs?
Grey or white tops with chrome legs, or black tops for a moody scheme, are the classic pairings.
Chair styles
Our chairs come as lion-knocker backs (a metal ring on the back), buttoned high backs and plain curved backs, with chrome, gold or black legs. All are plush velvet over a foam seat with a seat height of around 47–50cm to suit a 75cm table. See the whole range, sold separately, in velvet dining chairs.
Looking after velvet chairs
Vacuum with a soft brush attachment weekly and brush the pile in one direction. Blot spills with a dry cloth — don't rub — and use a little mild soap and water for marks. Keep chairs out of direct sunlight to prevent fading. For a wipe-clean alternative, choose a PU-leather set.

Caring for a marble or stone table top
Care depends on what the top is made of, so check the product page first.
- Natural marble is porous. Wipe spills straight away (wine, citrus and coffee can etch it), clean with a pH-neutral cleaner and a soft cloth, use placemats and coasters, and re-seal once or twice a year.
- Sintered stone and ceramic tops are non-porous, heat- and scratch-resistant, and need only a damp cloth. No sealing required.
- Never drag a table across the floor — lift it — and keep heavy items off the overhang.
Finishing the room
Match your table with a marble coffee table, console table, lamp table or sideboard in the same finish, and add bar stools for a kitchen island. Every order includes free UK delivery, and our Manchester-based team is happy to help you choose.
