10 Easy Pieces: Stackable Dining Chairs
The stacking dining chair isn't as easy to source as you might expect. (It's one of the reasons the Ercol chair is so ubiquitous. It's the go-to for tight dining spaces without being gimmicky.) We figure, a chair is extra useful if you can stack it three high, at least, so we've rounded up our favorites to do the job-Ercol included.
Above: The Pilar Chair by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec is made of only four pieces of wood and a hidden cast iron structure. The chairs can be stacked up to four and are ÂŁ410 ($540) at Conran Shop.
