Animal Print Dining Chairs

Animal Print Dining Chairs: Exotic and Innovative Imagination

Although you often think of dining room chairs as being of solid wood, animal prints are an imaginative way to break up the traditional decor. When you introduce animal prints to your dining area, adorning your chairs provides significant contrast and often is sufficient to stand alone. There are a few ways to add animal prints to your dining chairs, including classical designs based on animal skins, less traditional styling, and various fabrics. Certain chair types are particularly suited to show off animal genres.

Since dining room chairs often serve as neutral backdrops to animal prints, they frequently embrace simple styles and neutral colours. You can make a few bench seats with animal print throw pillows work. However, animal prints also fit in with the appearance of custom-made chairs with rolled or intricate backs, ornate arms, or footed legs. Solid wood furniture like mahogany or cherry puts big cat animal prints against a natural environment. You can also use metals such as stainless steel or gold to make spots, splotches, or stripes pop. Transparent framing and legs on a chair may give portrait and landscape-style prints the impression of a painted canvas.

• Curves accentuate animal hide patterns - flared backs or legs
• Barrel chair
• High-backed
• Wood finishes - espresso

Although safari animal hides are commonly applied to furniture decor, other animal prints are also available. Alternative animal print styles range from landscape views to noble portraits to nontraditional hides.

• Traditional designs inspired by animal skins - leopard, zebra, cheetah, cowhide, or tiger stripe prints
• Portraits - elephant, leopard, lion, horse or dog figure prints featuring multiple animal figures, profiles, or head portraits; may or may not illustrate additional artwork behind the animals
• Accents - animal prints such as leopard spots and tiger stripes are in focused parts of the upholstery rather than across the entire chair
• Alternative colors - traditional animal hide prints will be in burgundy, blue, platinum, or a rainbow of nonstandard colours
• Bird or butterfly prints - vividly coloured

Pillow cushions, seating pads, or upholstery are viable ways that you can incorporate animal prints into your dining chairs. Upholstery and cushions can use a wide range of fabrics. Velvet is a luxurious fabric that highlights animal patterns and somewhat mimics the feel of animal fur. Alligator and elephant prints might look more realistic with shiny woven fabric or textured brocade. Other options include linen, down feathers, leather, satin, silk, and cotton that must appeal to comfort as well as visual appeal. Cowhide might be used on furniture, but there's also faux cowhide for those who want vegan options.
