Dining chair (x6) that I've been looking for the past 18 months Blush

It's got to be :

Velvet (not crushed velvet)
Oak legs (important as black legs chip easily and I couldn't cope with the upkeep of chrome legs!)
Knocker back style
Studded side detail preferred !

We have an oak dining table and the dining room is open plan with the kitchen which has a slate Grey kitchen - so what colour chair should I go with ? I have three young kids so cream is out of the question but they have to fit the above criteria!

I've looked absolutely everywhere and I can't find them. It's driving me crazy and I just need some chairs to complete my dining table because staring at it everyday during lockdown is DRIVING ME CRAZY.

And breathe . Grin

Velvet cleans up really well surprisingly
What do you clean yours with? I have a velvet armchair and I’m too scared to try anything incase it marks.

@RedRed9 I use the doctor beckmans carpet and upholstery cleaner.. it's a white bottle with a small blue brush on the lid , brilliant stuff ! Just test a little hidden part of the chair first to make sure it doesn't stain. My girls sometimes leave pen marks on there, even biro marks and it lifts them right off ! For an overall clean I put a little bit of washing powder in a bowl of very hot water and soak a white cloth in it then scrub the sofa with it all over .. comes up a treat . The sofa is a light grey and we've had it about a year now with no disasters !

Depends what the 'velvet' is made from, doesn't it, as to how well they clean up?

Thanks @fogginghell Mine is from Made so I’ll compare them. And maybe be brave and try a little washing power on a hidden bit!
