White carved back lacquer chairs set in a modern glam wood paneled dining room with round brass chandelier, a long wood oval table, high gloss lacquer cabinet, pale blue teardrop glass table lamps, a gold gilt mirror all make for a room with a tremendous amount of high style. (above)
I didn’t invent this idea clearly … but I really like this look. High gloss geometric designed back white lacquer dining chairs around any table.
The look is probably most inspired by the iconic Loop Chair designed by 20th century American interior designer Frances Elkins. A reproduction of this well known chair is below.

Here are a few other rooms sporting my new favorite dining room look!

More high gloss carved back chairs surround a small round table and have black upholstered seats cushions that match the glossy black cabinet. (above)

Oh I do love these chairs! And I particularly like them in the application at the top, working with the fab brass chandelier’s geometric pattern. I notice (from the light on the floor) that there are horizontal blinds. I wonder what the effect would be if the photo were taken from opposite the window.
I love those chairs. I would love to have some like that in my dining room.
Love these! My dining room is in need of an update…hoping to keep the table and just replace the chairs. These are a great idea, thanks!!
I love it! I just bought some cane back chairs on ebay that are expecting this very same treatment!
I think this is gorgeous!
Personally I think they are very chic and summery. Lovely!
Wow – and I think they’d look great in an all-white setting too!
Love these chairs! I think I need to find a way to use them in a project!
All fab…my favorites are the high backs with the little curve!
Those chairs rule.
I like anything white- so these chairs are right up my alley. Love them!
That first photo is absolutely stunning!!!
love the theme of the turquoise and white color and the accessories used are perfectly suit the theme and create a mythical ambiance.
The loop chair is too gorgeous to describe in words. Love it!
Fantastic chairs! Want them all, lol!
the chairs look fabulous.. i also love the chandelier in the first picture.
LOVE those C. Bell chairs!!!
Another blog just did a nice post on Elkin chairs today if you are looking for originals and reproductions to buy….go to White Haven Blog to see a great survey of where you can find these kind of chairs. Thank you Helen!
Elkins chairs are so transitional- loving them with contemporary tables or formal/informal settings. Love COCO- Thanks for mention.
Oh ….I think i want to paint my dining table chairs in a white lacquer..it looks so crisp and clean!
Beautiful laquer white chairs. Now i’m thinking of painting this louis ghost chairs just to get the solid look of those chairs.
