Black Mid-Century Modern Dining Chairs Set of 2
Orville Dining Chairs in Black Solid Elm with Natural Rattan Back Panel and Cotton Seat, Set of Two
The Orville chair resolves its material combination with precision. The black solid elm frame is clean and direct: four tapered legs, a rectangular back frame, no ornament. Within that back frame sits a natural rattan panel, its open weave introducing the warm honey tone and visual permeability that a solid back would close off. Looking at the chair from across a table the rattan reads as breathing room in the frame, the warm natural color contrasting quietly with the dark elm. The cream cotton seat lies flat without tufting, a simple surface that keeps the material conversation from becoming crowded.
The Orville Dining Chair from Moe's Home Collection stands 33 inches tall at 18.5 inches wide and 16.5 inches deep. The compact footprint tucks efficiently under most tables and the rattan back keeps the chair from reading as heavy even in a black finish. At 13.2 lbs per chair the set is easy to move. The black and natural palette works in rooms that mix dark and light, structured and organic. Sold as a set of two.

Moe's Home Collection:Forty Years of Furniture With a Point of View
Some brands earn trust loudly. Moe's has never needed to. The evidence shows up in rooms, season after season, in pieces that end up feeling more considered than their owners quite anticipated. More grounded. More alive.
That doesn't happen by accident. It happens because someone decided, a long time ago, that material and craft were worth the extra conversation, and never really stopped having it.
A Design House, Not a Furniture Factory
The Pieces Feel Found - Not Simply Bought
The Origin
A Family That BuiltSomething From Nothing
Moe Samieian Sr. arrived in Canada with an engineering degree and almost nowhere to use it. So he sold rugs at road shows, worked on commission, and learned the retail floor through years of direct customer contact.
In 1986 he opened his first store in Vancouver. Walking the trade shows, he kept noticing the same thing: most furniture looked identical. So he started hunting for pieces with something to say. Antiques. Flea-market finds. Objects with texture and history. More stores followed, and in 1999 he moved decisively into wholesale.
His children Sara and Moe Jr. carried that instinct forward. Not what merely sells. What resonates. That distinction still drives every collection.
The materials earn their place. Wood warms the edges. Stone steadies the eye. Steel adds tension. Glass lets the composition breathe. A hand-worked surface keeps a modern room from feeling too resolved.
The goal was never perfection. It was presence.
Moe's Is Built for PeopleWho Notice the Difference
The Craft
Material First - Trend Second
Every collection is designed in-house, then built through a manufacturing network developed over decades. Vietnam, India, Italy, Poland, Canada, the USA. Not the lowest-cost option in any of those places. Long-term makers who've been held to the same standards long enough that the standards stopped needing to be explained.
The construction is what you'd expect from that kind of relationship. Solid hardwood frames. High-density foam. Hardware that doesn't announce itself by failing early. These are not selling points so much as baseline expectations that a lot of furniture quietly fails to meet.
The materials go further than that. Acacia grain that no engineered surface comes close to replicating. Stone that grounds a room both visually and physically, which are different things and both matter. Mixed metals chosen for tension rather than coordination. FSC-certified wood and responsible sourcing throughout, though the more honest argument for it shows up over time, in how the pieces age rather than what the spec sheet says.
- Moe's does not source furniture. It curates it.
