Some dining chairs seem to demand half the room. The Shakespeare Sorority Solid Wood Dining Chair offers traditional height and character in a more compact, easy-to-place design. Made in Ontario, this graceful chair is a natural choice for smaller dining rooms, round tables and families who want to fit more seating comfortably around the table.

Known by some as the Sorority, the Shakespeare features a traditional 39-inch overall height while measuring only approximately 17¼ inches wide and 15½ inches deep. Its seat is approximately 17 inches from the floor. These space-conscious proportions give the chair an elegant upright appearance without the width or depth of a larger dining chair.

A coordinating Shakespeare Sorority Arm Chair is also available. The armchair measures approximately 17¼ inches wide, 15½ inches deep and 39 inches high, with the same 17-inch seat height. Its arms extend approximately 8 inches above the seat. Place matching armchairs at the ends of a rectangular table, or choose them wherever added arm support is preferred. We recommend checking the clearance beneath your table apron before ordering armchairs.

The Shakespeare Sorority is available in Maple or Wormy Maple. Maple has a smoother, more consistent grain that gives the chair a clean and refined appearance. Wormy Maple displays more natural variation, including darker mineral streaks and distinctive markings that make each chair feel individual. Your choice of stain can take either wood from light and relaxed to rich and traditional.

Behind its compact proportions is traditional solid wood construction. Martin’s Chairs uses mortise-and-tenon joinery, solid wood corner blocks and steam-bent components to reinforce important areas of the chair. These details create a substantial Ontario-made dining chair intended for regular meals, special gatherings and the ordinary moments that happen around a family table.

The Shakespeare Sorority pairs particularly well with round pedestal tables, smaller harvest tables and traditional solid wood dining tables. Side chairs and armchairs can be ordered in matching wood and finish to create a complete dining set.

For customers looking for a compact solid wood dining chair in Ontario, the Shakespeare Sorority combines space-conscious dimensions, traditional craftsmanship and customizable options in a design that feels welcoming rather than oversized.
