Wrought iron dining chairs, hand-forged in Jodhpur — wholesale for importers, retailers and restaurants.
Hand-forged iron frames with solid-wood, woven or cushioned seats — the industrial, farmhouse and bistro look, built to commercial strength and ready to match our dining tables. Manufacturer-direct, compliance-documented and container-ready, from a trial order up.
Forged iron and real wood — seating that survives three meals a day.
A dining chair is the most-used seat in any home or restaurant, so it has to pass two tests at once: it must look like the room's hero and take years of pull-out, sit-down, scrape-back use without loosening. A wrought-iron frame answers both — the forged density gives it presence no tube-steel copy can match, while hammer marks, scrollwork or a clean industrial line carry a solid-wood, woven or cushioned seat. It works under a farmhouse table, in a loft dining room, across a café or bistro, and it photographs beautifully for marketplace and catalogue listings. Jodhpur is India's hub for solid-wood and iron furniture, so this wood-and-iron pairing is our home ground. Choose a ready design from our catalogue or hand us your own: we forge, finish and pack it to your market's standard.
What goes into a chair that does not wobble by year two.
Hand-forged iron frames
Low-carbon iron worked hot — hammered, drawn, bent and welded by hand — so each frame has the density and slight irregularity of true forging, not the hollow feel of tube steel. High tensile strength and malleability mean the frame flexes and resists impact rather than cracking at the joints, which is exactly where dining chairs fail. See how we forge and finish wrought iron.
Solid-wood & woven seats
Every chair carries a genuine solid-wood component — a mango, acacia, sheesham or reclaimed-wood seat or back panel — or a hand-woven cane, rattan or jute seat on a wood base. Real timber brings the warmth, comfort and repair-ability a pure-metal dining chair lacks, and a contoured wood seat is far kinder for a long meal. Mango wood for dining seating.
Finishes & upholstery
Baked powder coat, hand-applied antique black or patina, or raw-sealed industrial steel; seats can add a cushioned or leather pad for comfort and acoustic softness in busy rooms. Timber is finished to CARB / TSCA Title VI formaldehyde norms, so the chair reads premium and clears the port.
Side chairs, carvers and bistro frames — one forge, many looks.
Industrial & farmhouse
Clean square or round forged stock under a plank-wood seat — the loft, warehouse and farmhouse dining look. Pair it with a reclaimed-wood top and you have the full industrial table setting. Industrial dining chairs run the same frame family.
Bistro & scrollwork
Hand-bent scroll backs and curved French-bistro frames for cafés, patisseries and boutique dining rooms, finished in antique black or aged bronze so each chair reads as individually forged, not mass-stamped.
Side chairs & carver armchairs
Build a set from armless side chairs with carver armchairs at the heads of the table, matched in frame section, wood and finish. We can engineer stackable frames for restaurants and banquet floors where storage is tight.
Indicative specs — every dimension, seat and finish is made to your order.
Figures below are typical ranges for reference. We manufacture to your exact drawings and market requirements, so seat height, frame section, seat type and finish are specified at the quote stage — and we hold a standard dining seat height so our chairs clear the apron of our dining tables. Lot and finish traceability is documented where applicable, and we supply matching touch-up finish with every order.

One wrought iron dining chair, every channel that seats people.
Retail, online & private label
Forged iron with a wood or woven seat photographs with instant character for marketplace and catalogue listings, and the weight signals quality the moment a customer lifts it in a showroom. We produce your range under your brand with retail-ready or Amazon-FBA packaging, and consolidate dining chairs with matching dining tables, benches and décor into one container. Private-label manufacturing keeps the look and the margin yours.
Restaurant, café & hospitality
Wrought iron is commercial-grade by nature — the frame outlasts upholstery, fashion cycles and the daily scrape-back of a busy dining room, with stackable builds for storage and turnover. Because every piece is QC-checked and the frame is genuine forged iron, it holds up to contract use. Restaurant & café furniture is built and inspected for the floor, not just the photoshoot.
Paperwork your customs broker will thank you for.
Import-ready on every container
Wrought iron itself carries no timber-legality burden, but the solid and reclaimed wood in each seat does — and that is where buyers get caught at the port. Our chairs ship with FSC chain-of-custody, Vriksh timber-legality and CITES-compliant handling of Dalbergia sissoo behind the wood, backed by ISO, SGS and SEDEX/SMETA audits. We are EUDR-ready with geolocation and deforestation-free due diligence, and we support US Lacey Act declarations, UK Timber Regulation, CARB/TSCA finishes and ISPM-15 export packing. See every certification we hold.
Care & longevity
Finished correctly, wrought iron needs little maintenance. Dust with a dry or barely-damp cloth and avoid abrasive pads; wipe spills promptly and keep the feet dry where they meet the floor; touch up any chips before rust can start, and fit floor glides to protect both the chair and the dining-room floor. Care for the wood seat on its own schedule with occasional oil or wax. We supply matching touch-up finish and written care specifications with every order.
Wrought iron dining chairs — wholesale & export FAQ
What is a wrought iron dining chair?
A wrought iron dining chair is a dining-height side or carver chair built on a hand-forged low-carbon iron frame rather than an all-wood or all-upholstered one. In our range the forged frame carries a solid-wood seat, a woven cane or jute seat, or a cushioned pad, so you get the industrial, farmhouse or French-bistro look with steel-grade rigidity and the warmth of real timber. The hammer texture and scrollwork come from genuine hand forging, not hollow tube steel, which is why these chairs stand up to daily restaurant and family use.
What are your wrought iron dining chairs made from?
Every chair pairs a hand-forged wrought-iron frame with at least one solid-wood component — a mango, acacia, sheesham or reclaimed-wood seat or back. Seats can also be hand-woven cane, rattan or jute cord, or an upholstered or leather pad on a wood base. We do not supply hollow tube-steel or particleboard seating; the frame is forged iron and the wood is genuine solid timber, which is what lets the same chair serve a café floor, a hotel restaurant and a residential dining room.
Do wrought iron dining chairs come as a set with a table?
We supply dining chairs on their own by the container and as coordinated sets with our solid-wood and iron dining tables. Because we manufacture both, we match the frame finish, wood species and height so chairs and table read as one program, and we consolidate chairs, tables and benches into a single mixed container. Tell us whether you want side chairs, carver armchairs or a mix, and we quote the set.
What is the minimum order for wholesale wrought iron dining chairs?
A trial or sample order can ship LCL (part-container) so you can approve the forging, finish, wood and seat first. For best wholesale pricing thereafter our standard minimum is one 20ft full container load, and we consolidate wrought iron dining chairs with dining tables, benches, other seating and décor into a single mixed container.
Can you make wrought iron dining chairs to our own design or private label?
Yes. We work as both ODM (our catalogue designs) and OEM — forging to your drawings, seat height, back style, powder-coat colour and finish, with custom CNC and metal fabrication, your branding and retail-ready or Amazon-FBA packaging. Send a reference photo, drawing or physical sample and we prototype to it before you commit to a run.
Do wrought iron dining chairs ship knock-down or assembled, and are they stackable?
Because forged iron is dense, freight matters. We engineer most frames as knock-down or flat-pack — bolt-together frames with removable wood seats — to lower breakage and maximise container density, and we can build stackable frames for restaurants and banquet use. Fully woven or sculptural welded frames may ship assembled or part-assembled to protect the piece; we confirm the format per style at the quote stage and quote FOB or CIF from Mundra or Nhava Sheva.
Send a reference or your drawings — we'll forge, sample and ship.
Tell us the frame, seat, finish, quantity and market, and whether you want chairs alone or a full dining set. We confirm wood, finish, MOQ and a FOB/CIF price from Mundra or Nhava Sheva, produce a sample for approval, then manufacture and pack to your standard on a 30–45 day lead time.
