Why Sera Is a Standout Kitchen Dining Chair
Before we jump into care tips, here’s why the Sera Chair is so popular:
- Upholstered in soft velvet or faux leather, offering both comfort and easy styling
- Sleek, modern silhouette perfect as a modern dining chair
- Sturdy frame, ideal for daily family use
- Compact footprint — a great dining room chair for small rooms
Whether you're using it as a full set around your dining table or a pair at your kitchen island, Sera effortlessly blends with your decor.
The Basics: Understanding the Fabric
The Sera comes in two primary finishes: Velvet and Faux Leather. Each needs a slightly different approach when it comes to care. Here's how to treat each surface like a pro.
For Velvet Sera Chairs
Velvet adds that luxe, cozy texture to your kitchen dining chair, but it’s also more delicate than other materials.
Daily Care Tips:
- Gently brush the fabric using a soft clothes brush or velvet brush to prevent dust buildup.
- Use a handheld vacuum (on low suction) weekly to remove crumbs or pet hair.
Stain Handling:
- If a spill happens, blot immediately with a clean dry cloth — do not rub.
- For tougher spots, use a mild fabric cleaner or a homemade mix (1 tsp of dish soap + 1 cup of water). Lightly dab the area using a microfiber cloth.
- Let it air dry completely — no hairdryers or heaters.
Pro Tip: Keep velvet chairs out of direct sunlight to avoid color fading over time.
For Faux Leather Sera Chairs
Faux leather Sera chairs are an excellent choice for busy families and casual kitchens. They're stylish, spill-resistant, and perfect as kitchen chairs or dining room chairs where daily meals happen.
Daily Care Tips:
- Wipe with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth after use.
- Dust regularly to maintain a clean surface.
Spill Handling:
- For food or drink spills, quickly wipe down with a damp cloth and dry with a towel.
- Use a mild soap and water mix if needed, but avoid harsh chemical cleaners — they can dry out the faux leather.
Bonus: Apply a leather conditioner made for synthetic materials once every 3–4 months to maintain softness and prevent cracking.
Protecting the Legs and Structure
Regardless of fabric, every dining room chair takes some wear and tear at the legs — especially if it’s pulled in and out multiple times daily.
- Add felt pads underneath the legs to prevent floor scratching.
- Tighten screws every few months to keep the structure sturdy.
- Avoid dragging chairs — lift instead (especially on hardwood or tiled floors).
Long-Term Storage or Occasional Use?
If you're storing your Sera chairs for an event or rotating them in and out of seasonal dining setups:
- Cover them with a breathable fabric cover (avoid plastic, which traps moisture).
- Store in a cool, dry space — preferably not an outdoor garage.
- Give them a light clean before storing and again when bringing them back into use.
