Rather than a solid wood crisscrossing the back at perfect 90 degree angles, these dining chairs have two reedy, slightly more flexible pieces stretched from one side of the chair back to the other. Each half of the X is a separate piece, and each end is visibly affixed to the back of the chair.\n\n<!-- <iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: solid 7px #fdd4b0; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 15px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.homethangs.com\/shop\/shopdisplayproductsblog.asp?id=824\" width=\"645\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe> -->\n\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_17480\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17480\" style=\"width: 366px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/shop_dining_room_chairs_modway_furniture\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cross backed dining chairs are often made with a weathered appearance, either lightly distressed, aged, or whitewashed to enhance their cottage or farmhouse feel (by deluxe design studio)\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17480\" height=\"508\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/2014\/09\/Cross-backed-dining-chairs-are-often-made-with-a-weathered-appearance-either-lightly-distressed-aged-or-whitewashed-to-enhance-their-cottage-or-farmhouse-feel-by-deluxe-design-studio.jpg\" width=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Cross-backed-dining-chairs-are-often-made-with-a-weathered-appearance-either-lightly-distressed-aged-or-whitewashed-to-enhance-their-cottage-or-farmhouse-feel-by-deluxe-design-studio.jpg 366w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Cross-backed-dining-chairs-are-often-made-with-a-weathered-appearance-either-lightly-distressed-aged-or-whitewashed-to-enhance-their-cottage-or-farmhouse-feel-by-deluxe-design-studio-288x400.jpg 288w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 366px) 100vw, 366px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17480\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cross backed dining chairs are often made with a weathered appearance, either lightly distressed, aged, or whitewashed to enhance their cottage or farmhouse feel (by deluxe design studio)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\nThe effect is slightly uneven, with cross bars that overlap the edges of the chair and aren&#8217;t quite so pristinely finished. The nails or bolts that hold them in place can clearly be seen, and give the chairs a rustic, hand-crafted appearance. Combined with weather worn wood or aged whitewash or black paint finishes, the kind of cross back dining chairs that are particularly popular now don&#8217;t just look retro, they look intentionally old.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_17481\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17481\" style=\"width: 499px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/shop_dining_room_chairs_modway_furniture\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Despite being vintage-inspired, cross backed dining chairs are surprisingly ergonomic (by French Dressing)\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17481\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/2014\/09\/Despite-being-vintage-inspired-cross-backed-dining-chairs-are-surprisingly-ergonomic-by-French-Dressing.jpg\" width=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Despite-being-vintage-inspired-cross-backed-dining-chairs-are-surprisingly-ergonomic-by-French-Dressing.jpg 499w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Despite-being-vintage-inspired-cross-backed-dining-chairs-are-surprisingly-ergonomic-by-French-Dressing-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Despite-being-vintage-inspired-cross-backed-dining-chairs-are-surprisingly-ergonomic-by-French-Dressing-400x400.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 499px) 100vw, 499px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17481\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Despite being vintage-inspired, cross backed dining chairs are surprisingly ergonomic (by French Dressing)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\nThat said, while the chairs have a hand-hewn quality to them, the banded cross backs are actually quite comfortable. If you look closely, you can see that the two reedy pieces of wood bend at the back and curve where they meet the seat of the chair, creating a sort of person-shaped hourglass that curves the chair to the contours of the body. Unlike more modern <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homethangs.com\/chairs-793.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Chairs\">chairs<\/a>, these have no rigid angles, and are designed for practical comfort.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_8565\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8565\" style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/shop_dining_room_chairs_modway_furniture\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Simple Cross Backed Dining Chairs Paired With A Rustic Wood Table And Floor Evoke A Country Style Even In A Contemporary Setting (by Warmington North)\" class=\"wp-image-8565 size-full\" height=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/2013\/09\/Simple-Cross-Backed-Dining-Chairs-Paired-With-A-Rustic-Wood-Table-And-Floor-Evoke-A-Country-Style-Even-In-A-Contemporary-Setting-by-Warmington-North.jpg\" title=\"Simple Cross Backed Dining Chairs Paired With A Rustic Wood Table And Floor Evoke A Country Style Even In A Contemporary Setting (by Warmington North)\" width=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Simple-Cross-Backed-Dining-Chairs-Paired-With-A-Rustic-Wood-Table-And-Floor-Evoke-A-Country-Style-Even-In-A-Contemporary-Setting-by-Warmington-North.jpg 480w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Simple-Cross-Backed-Dining-Chairs-Paired-With-A-Rustic-Wood-Table-And-Floor-Evoke-A-Country-Style-Even-In-A-Contemporary-Setting-by-Warmington-North-400x344.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8565\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Simple Cross Backed Dining Chairs Paired With A Rustic Wood Table And Floor Evoke A Country Style Even In A Contemporary Setting (by Warmington North)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\nThis blend of old and new has gotten a lot of different labels &#8211; shabby chic or reclaimed industrial being just a few. But while these specific styles are popular, they&#8217;re also quite distinct, and the trend really extends above and beyond both. Essentially, homeowners and designers alike are pushing back against the stark, straight lines of a modern decor and opting for a softer contemporary look. This new trend focuses on blunted rather than sharp edges, natural materials, and a smattering of antiques and retro items to create a more casual, homier style.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_8559\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8559\" style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Combining Rustic Cross Back Dining Chairs With Crisp, Clean Upholstered Ones Creates a Style That's Both Casual And Classy (by Sabal Homes)\" class=\"wp-image-8559 size-full\" height=\"468\" src=\"https:\/\/homethang.com\/blogimages\/2013\/09\/Combining-Rustic-Cross-Back-Dining-Chairs-With-Crisp-Clean-Upholstered-Ones-Creates-a-Style-Thats-Both-Casual-And-Classy-by-Sabal-Homes.jpg\" title=\"Combining Rustic Cross Back Dining Chairs With Crisp, Clean Upholstered Ones Creates a Style That's Both Casual And Classy (by Sabal Homes)\" width=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Combining-Rustic-Cross-Back-Dining-Chairs-With-Crisp-Clean-Upholstered-Ones-Creates-a-Style-Thats-Both-Casual-And-Classy-by-Sabal-Homes.jpg 480w, https:\/\/homethangs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Combining-Rustic-Cross-Back-Dining-Chairs-With-Crisp-Clean-Upholstered-Ones-Creates-a-Style-Thats-Both-Casual-And-Classy-by-Sabal-Homes-400x390.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8559\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Combining Rustic Cross Back Dining Chairs With Crisp, Clean Upholstered Ones Creates a Style That&#8217;s Both Casual And Classy (by Sabal Homes)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\nCross back chairs also pair spectacularly well with nailhead and other <a href=\"http:\/\/www.homethangs.com\/blog\/2013\/09\/contemporary-classic-dining-sets-updated-antiques-for-a-modern-home\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Upholstered Dining Chairs\">upholstered dining chairs<\/a>. Placing one or two upholstered chairs at the short ends of a long table with several cross backed chairs along the sides gives the whole setup a more upscale appearance. Especially with very weathered wood chairs, a high quality upholstery can make the wear and tear feel antique rather than run down, while creating a nice textural blend between rough wood and cloth that enhances this slightly homey yet classy contemporary vibe.\n\nWhat do you think of these cross back dining chairs?
