Pfitzner Benefits
SA Owned and Operated
SA Owned and Operated
For nearly fifty years, we have been designing and making furniture from solid timbers. We began in a farm shed in 1972 when our father, John Pfitzner, decided he had seen enough poorly made, disposable furniture. Our furniture is now available through our Norwood store and our factory showroom in Littlehampton. We’re a true South Australian family business, owned and operated by brothers Andrew and David, and our sister Belinda manages the Norwood store. Together we develop the designs and manage every aspect of the product design and quality.
Plus, since 1999, Pfitzner has been home to Adelaide’s largest range of luxury Norwegian Stressless comfort recliners and sofas, and we’re also the destination for premium outdoor furniture from internationally respected garden furniture brands such as Vincent Shephard, Cotswold, & Roolf.
Quality That Lasts
Quality That Lasts
If you look underneath or inside the top drawer of any piece of Pfitzner Furniture, you’ll find our original logo. This is now our Guarantee of Quality seal. We like to think that decades, and possibly even centuries – from now, your family will still be enjoying our furniture.
And we keep our focus on practicality. If there is a drawer, we make sure it’s big enough to be useful. If it is a dining table for six, it means six people can dine comfortably without banging elbows. Or an entertainment unit, we design and make it to suit your components and media, so you won’t have to store your vinyl records in a milk crate. And if it is one of our beautiful beds, there are no sharp edges to catch your fingers on when you tuck in the sheets.
Individually Hand Crafted
Individually Hand Crafted
You can’t beat the old ways of individually ‘bench-making’ furniture. Each of our craftsmen works on just one piece at a time, whether an entertainment unit, a table or an armchair, and gives it their full attention ensuring perfection from start to finish.
Using time proven traditional methods like mortise and tenon joints and dovetail drawers, our eye-catching designs are hand-carved and hand-finished; contrasting timbers are used for borders and inlays. The details are precise, balanced and elegant, setting them apart from those of mass-produced items.
Structural Guarantee
Structural Guarantee
From our family to yours. All Pfitzner hardwood furniture comes with a written 10-year structural guarantee. So you can take comfort and enjoy your beautiful furniture with peace of mind that if there is a problem, we will fix it. And that is why our furniture becomes family heirloom pieces, enjoyed for generations.

Our dining chairs have been tested by Furntech-AFRDI in Tasmania to meet the highest standards of durability, enabling us to offer a 10-year structural guarantee. Pfitzner’s timber dining chairs are designed to offer both functionality and style, crafted to withstand the test of time while complementing the decor of any space.
When it comes to dining chairs, there’s a vast variety to choose from, catering to different tastes, styles, and needs. Here’s an overview of the types and styles of dining chairs you might consider:
Types of dining chairs
- Armchairs: These chairs feature arms and are typically placed at the head and foot of the table. They’re often more substantial and can add a formal touch to dining settings.
- Side Chairs: These are armless chairs that fit along the sides of the dining table, helping to save space and accommodate more guests.
- Slat-Back Chairs: These chairs feature vertical slats on the back, offering a traditional look that works well in country, cottage, or rustic dining rooms.
- Ladder-Back Chairs: Similar to slat-back chairs but with horizontal slats, giving a slightly different aesthetic and often seen in farmhouse or country-style spaces.
- Upholstered Chairs: These chairs offer added comfort with upholstery on the seat and back. They’re available in a wide range of fabrics and patterns, allowing for a high degree of customisation.
- Fully Upholstered Chairs: The decorator range of fully upholstered dining chairs offer a luxurious seat & back with added comfort layers with piped detail on the back and seat. These are the top of the range in comfort and can be ordered in fabric or leather with options of top rail and front legs.
Dining chairs – styles
- Modern: Characterised by clean lines, minimal ornamentation, and often made of materials like metal, glass, or synthetic fabrics.
- Traditional: Features more detail, such as carved wood, rich finishes, and luxurious fabrics. Traditional chairs often have a timeless, elegant look.
- Industrial: Utilises raw materials like steel, wood, and leather, often leaving elements exposed for a rugged, unfinished look.
- Scandinavian: Focuses on simplicity, minimalism, and functionality, with natural wood often playing a key role in the design.
- Mid-Century Modern: Known for its retro-futuristic elements, with organic shapes, innovative materials, and a nod to the designs of the 1950s and 60s.
- Rustic: Emphasises natural beauty with rough-hewn wood, natural fibres, and a cozy, earthy palette.
Dining chairs – materials
- Wood: Classic, durable, and versatile; wood can be finished in various ways to match any decor.
- Metal: Offers a sleek, modern look and is often used in industrial and contemporary designs.
- Upholstery: Adds comfort and warmth, with options ranging from leather to velvet to cotton in an array of colours and patterns.
When choosing dining chairs, consider the style of your dining room, the table with which they’ll be paired, and the level of comfort and durability you need. Personal taste, functionality, and the chair’s role in your dining space’s overall design are key factors in making the right choice.
Customise your dining chairs
Customers can customise their chairs by selecting from a range of timbers, finishes, fabrics, and leathers, ensuring they integrate seamlessly into various settings and meet specific aesthetic preferences.
