        I think @Lisa is spot on about everything. She needs to consider a career in interior design!

        Another vote for the round one. I'm guessing the height is similar to the red chair, which I think would look balanced.

        If you go with a color for the chair, I would consider the rug and the red circles art when making my choice.

            Visually speaking, I like the one that @Lisa posted, the one with the metal frame and open sides. It looks less bulky than the one you just posted, even if they have the same footprint, which might be good if you're trying to make things look less crowded. Read: Keep Mr SK happy.

            The lines of the metal frame in Lisa's chair mirror the lines in the rug.

              I agree, @wtg!
              So, in that chair (let's call it Lisa's chair) I think brown works best... what do you think?

                  Did you look at the green? It looks close to the green in your rug....the reviews say it is a "nice olive"

                  Not a fan of the blue. It doesn't match anything else and the cool blue is the opposite spectrum of all the warm earthy tones you have going on in there.

                    The chair description says the legs are "sanded black matte" for all of them, so it might just be quirks of the lighting in the photo that's making them look lighter on some of the colors. It looks like they come disassembled anyway, so if the legs aren't as black as you want them, a can or two of spray paint could easily take care of that before you assemble them.

                      Yes, agree the blue would add a whole different dimension in a room that has a lot going on but that looks cohesive.

                      I'm a chicken so I'd probably go with brown. Do you have a sense how the green might look with the red circles art that would be hanging above it?

                        Oh and this week I got a postcard in the mail for 10% off from wayfair for first time customers - I just fished it out of my recycle pile. Let me know if you want it and I'll PM you the code (it's a one time use thing).

                          I had a hard time seeing the color of the green in the listing with just the chairs. There is a dining room set available with the same chairs, and I found the pic there of the set with the (olive) green chairs to have a better color rendering.

                            The rectangular legs repeat the rectangles in the rug.

                            Nice!

                              I think the green could work in this room, but maybe not in other rooms in the house, whereas the brown would work elsewhere as well as in here.

                              Anyway, here's the green:

                                I am almost decided on the brown.. But I am going to visit some local furniture stores this afternoon before ordering. Stay tuned!! 馃檪

                                Oh, @Lisa thank you for offering the coupon! Could you share it with me and I'll see if I can use it (on these sale items) -- if I can't, I'll let you know 馃檪

                                    I chatted with customer service at Wayfair and they said that if I buy it, get it all assembled and don't think it's comfortable, I can return it.

                                    Whether that's actually true or not, I won't know until I get to that point.

                                    But I feel ok making the order... After I get from shopping in town a bit today. 馃檪

                                      Yes, they do accept returns but you pay for the return shipping. I'm OK with paying a bit for an experiment that didn't turn out. Better than being out the entire cost of the item.
