Description
The Medway Oak Cross Back Dining Chair combines timeless design with understated elegance. Crafted from oak and pine with a distinctive cross back silhouette, this chair brings refined character to any dining space. The generously padded fabric seat ensures comfort, while the natural wood finish compliments both contemporary and traditional interiors. A versatile piece that balances aesthetic appeal with practical durability, perfect for creating a welcoming dining environment.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Medway Oak Cross Back chair for its timeless, rustic appeal and sturdy craftsmanship, making it a versatile addition to many dining settings. It works particularly well in country-style interiors or kitchens with a natural, understated aesthetic, but can also bring warmth to more eclectic or modern spaces when paired with contrasting textures. For styling tips, consider layering with soft seat cushions or throws to add comfort and colour, or combine with a mix of vintage and contemporary accessories for a relaxed yet polished look. Its neutral oak finish means it’s easy to coordinate with a variety of table styles and colour schemes, making it a practical yet stylish choice for everyday dining.

About Arighi Bianchi
Founded in 1854 by Italian craftsmen Antonio Arighi and Antonio Bianchi, Arighi Bianchi is one of the UK's oldest and most established furniture and interiors retailers. What began as a small workshop producing clocks and cabinets in Macclesfield has evolved over more than 170 years into a destination for premium home furnishings, combining heritage craftsmanship with contemporary design.
At the heart of the brand is its iconic four-storey showroom in Macclesfield - a Grade II* listed building inspired by the Crystal Palace - which has become a destination for interior enthusiasts across the UK. Over generations, the family-run business has built a reputation for quality, even supplying furniture to British royalty in its early years.
Today, Arighi Bianchi offers far more than furniture. Its collections span sofas, dining furniture, beds, lighting, flooring, soft furnishings and accessories, alongside carefully selected brands such as Vispring, Ercol and Stressless. This curated, multi-brand approach allows customers to create cohesive interiors that blend timeless elegance with contemporary style.
In recent years, Arighi Bianchi has evolved beyond traditional retail into a broader lifestyle experience - incorporating in-store design inspiration, curated accessory spaces and even a café to create a more immersive shopping environment. This shift reflects a modern focus on experiential retail, appealing to a new generation of homeowners while staying true to its heritage.
Still run by the founding family five generations on, Arighi Bianchi continues to balance tradition with innovation. Its long history, commitment to quality and carefully curated product range make it a trusted destination for those looking to invest in furniture and homeware designed to last.
