Help me to find dining chairs to match bar stools

We have the bar stools in the attached pic - the colour is taupe. Rather than trying to match the colour I thought we could contrast the dining chairs and go for a colour but I'm struggling to get inspiration! Our kitchen is neutral - walls are Egyptian cotton, cupboards are oak and worktop is mushroom quartz. Also we have 2 young children so need chairs that are easy to clean (ie not fabric).

The best I have come up with are these blue ones

  • they fit the criteria in terms of not being grey or white and also would be easy enough to clean (I think!)

Does anyone have any other suggestion? Thanks!

@Moo31 - The only thing I would say is that all that mesh bit - if you / DCs get stuff on those chairs they - they don't scream easy to clean to me - I would go for something more solid which is easier to wipe down. ( but you may be better at cleaning than me ) Grin

These seem really inexpensive but no mesh ness www.cultfurniture.com/furniture-c10/chairs-c3/dining-chairs-c24/iconic-designs-plastic-dining-chair-sky-blue-p36540/s147861?wid=1&dfw_tracker=18620-147861&msclkid=a1facb03edb21f3909acaaeb0a0bc924&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=UK%20-%20Shopping%20-%20tROAS&utm_term=4578435183390367&utm_content=All%20Products

Also there is a faux suede called Alcantara which is washable and easily cleanable ( obviously pouring a bottle of olive oil over it aside - but you could get chairs and have covers made in this. - it started out being made for cars )

Not sure have been of much help but very best with your new kitchen

I have chairs a bit like the ones Basilisk linked but in white with metal legs. They are indeed easy to clean but I found that when my son was younger (4-7ish) lots of his friends would lean sideways and the chair would overbalance and they’d fall off.

@JohnandMary - Good spot - never had similar chairs let alone with 4 - 7 year olds - I was going on wash / wipeabilty opposed to the mesh thing but in similar design - I think your advice is better than mine Grin

@BasiliskStare thank you! They do seem a bit more practical than the mesh ones and a great price too!

@JohnandMary I know what you mean! DS just turned 4 and insists on sitting on his knees so we often have a topple onto the floor!
