Price History
Description
The Kirby oak veneer and red gloss dining chair is an update on a classic design with a subtle nod to the 80s. This oak veneer chair is finished with contrasting red gloss metal legs to bring a touch of Habitat personality into your home. Great for smaller spaces, its slim legs give it a lightweight look and it can be tucked neatly under a dining table. The chair seat is finished with a clear lacquer for durability. Part of the Kirby range, a matching dining table is available alongside coffee tables, TV stands and desks.
Our Stylist Says
I love this chair for its sleek, modern lines and unexpected colour combination. The oak seat and back lend a natural warmth that works well in Scandi or minimalist interiors, while the red gloss legs add a pop of colour and contemporary edge. It’s versatile enough to sit in a dining room or even as an accent piece in a kitchen or home office. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with a neutral table to let the chair stand out, or mix it with other colourful or textured textiles for a playful look. Practical tips include using it in spaces where its clean silhouette can be appreciated and stacking or storing easily when not in use.

The Birth of Habitat
In 1964, Sir Terence Conran founded Habitat in London, aiming to bring a fresh European touch to UK home decor.
The first store, located on Fulham Road in Chelsea, became the blueprint for all Habitat stores to come. The store stood out with its distinct design, and was famously known for selling affordable pasta storage jars just as the pasta market began booming in the UK.
Rapid Expansion & Legacy
Habitat grew swiftly in the UK during the 1960s and even crossed borders with its first international store in Paris in 1973.
The brand's journey through the decades saw various mergers and acquisitions, including its integration with Sainsbury's Group in 2017.
Habitat's innovation extended beyond products; they even launched a mail-order system in 1966 and initiated the concept of flat-pack furniture in 1971.
Celebrating its rich history, the brand marked its 50th anniversary in 2014 by collaborating with past designers and commissioning a special logo.
Innovation & Collaboration
Habitat has always been at the forefront of modern design. Throughout its history, the brand has been renowned for its collaborations with acclaimed artists and designers, ensuring it consistently offers unique, limited-edition collections.
Under the umbrella of the Sainsbury's Group since 2017, Habitat continues its tradition of merging contemporary aesthetics with functional design, solidifying its reputation as a leading name in home furnishings.
