Rustic dining table with modern chairs...tell me they're nice!

[LostAtTheFair]

We have decided on a rustic dining table for our kitchen diner. We are going to go for this one www.neptune.com/furniture/dining/tables/suffolk/suffolk-extending-table/

The thinking was that we want somewhere for our kids to be able to do homework, arts and crafts and meals in a relaxed environment.

We have just decided on chairs. I didn't want to go too rustic as our house is fairly modern and so I wanted something comfortable but contemporary to "lift" the diner area so that it doesn't look too farmhousey (I love the farmhouse look, but our house is not that kind of house). So after much deliberation, we have gone for these in leather...

While I didn't want to get a matching table and chairs set, this lot has cost me an absolute packet and I'm fretting about whether or not they will look good together. They've all been ordered so hopefully they will. I'm on here shamelessly looking for reassurance! What do you think?

There is a very similar table and chairs in this months 25 Beautiful Homes magazine in blue. The most important thing is that you love it. It also looks a very practical table for a family for painting/homework etc. Enjoy it!

I think the look will work as you have a modern house. Love it when people have mismatch stuff. Shows that they are interesting and think outside the box

Thanks guys

Well readers, I couldn't stop thinking about the chairs so I went to the shop today and they couldn't have been nicer... After a lot of very constructive input from the lovely sales assistant and manager, I changed the order to a more conventional style. Thanks all for your input - I wasn't initially pleased to get the more critical feedback but it has saved me from some very juggling doubts. And thanks also to the reassuring posters.

Glad you have swapped for something you feel happier with And modern accessories will break up the classic look.

Thanks mittens.
