These are the best chairs ever! The are made out of metal, all one mold so no loose legs or arms or whatsoever, they have a clear finish so they are super easy to wipe clean. We had them for over six month now, no scratches or dents with two a bit rough children and we use them for all three meals daily. If you want to create that industrial chic look these are your chairs. I got them in gold they contrast nicely with our dark walls.
