When black beats gold
A gold chair adds warmth. A black one draws a line. Black Chiavari chairs give each seat a firm outline, so they work where the table is meant to be the loud part: deep red or emerald linen, tall florals, black-and-white monochrome, a corporate dinner in company colours. Our listing puts them at evening receptions and dinners for a reason. Under low light the dark frame recedes, and the centrepieces and candles take the eye instead. At a daytime garden wedding the opposite happens, which is when the gold Chiavari chair or the soft white scroll-back Chiavari reads better.
The same design as the gold chair
Strip away the colour and this is the classic Chiavari, which hire firms also sell as the black Tiffany chair or the Camelot: a ladder back, ringed bamboo-style legs, a seat about 40 cm across. Our catalogue research matches it to the frame of our gold chair. We have not yet measured the black ones on their own, so the figures on this page are the makers' for this design. BE Furniture Sales, a UK supplier, lists a 92 cm chair, 39 cm wide, with a 44 cm seat and a weight of 3.85 kg including the pad. Events Wholesale in the US gives 92.7 cm, 40 cm and a 45 cm seat for its resin version, rated for a static load of 1,000 lb (about 450 kg). If your tables are unusually low or high, ask and we measure before you book.
Black and gold Chiavari chairs in one room
Since the frames match, a room can use both without the rows looking uneven. Gold at the top table and black for the guests marks out the couple. The reverse works for an awards dinner, where gold picks out the honourees. Each colour is its own line on your quote at its own price, and the crew sets them out to your plan. For colour on the chairs themselves, tie-backs in your scheme are tied on at set-up; the gold chair's page covers the warm palettes, while black sits well with jewel tones and crisp white linen.
Black Chiavari chair with black cushion, or white?
Seven of the searches typed about the black chair ask about its cushion. On this design the seat pad is a separate piece: BE Furniture Sales sells its Chiavari without one and offers black and ivory pads alongside. A black pad keeps the chair one solid colour. A white or ivory pad lightens it and ties it to white linen. Tell us which look you want with your date, and we confirm the pads that go out with your order before you pay the deposit.
Black Chiavari chairs hire: the price for your count
KSh 250 per chair for a 24-hour hire. On the site's planner one guest takes one chair, so 60 chairs come to KSh 15,000, 100 to KSh 25,000 and 200 to KSh 50,000. Add a dressed round table for eight for every eight guests: 120 guests at 15 tables is KSh 45,000 before transport. Transport is the only separate line, priced by the distance from our Uthiru yard. A 50% deposit holds the date.
Rest of the Chiavari range
Children at the party? The gold kids' Chiavari is the child-size chair to look at, since we do not list a black one for kids. For a modern room, the clear acrylic ghost chair shows the table through it. Every colour and size is on the Tiffany chairs for hire page, and other designs sit with the full range of black chairs and other chairs for hire.

Customer reviews
How reviews workWhat makes a helpful review
- What the event was, and for how many guests
- How it looked on the day — a photo says the most
- Delivery, setup and collection
Thank you!
- Our team reads it.
- It appears on this page — photos once they are checked.
- If we reply, you'll see our reply under your review.
Questions about this item
No questions yet. Ask anything — sizes, colours, how many you need for your guests, delivery to your area. We answer here, usually within a day.
How reviews work on Sherehe
- Every review is read by our team. We publish good and bad reviews alike — a low star rating is never a reason to hold one back.
- If we have not got to it, a review publishes by itself after 2 days — unless it contains a link, a phone number or words that need a look. Photos always wait for a person.
- Confirmed hire means we matched the review to a real Sherehe booking.
- If we ever correct a review — for example to remove a phone number — it says Edited by Sherehe.
- Nobody is paid or given a discount for a review. If that ever changes, the review will say so.
- Reviewers' contact details are never shown. Visitors can report anything that breaks these rules; reported items go back to our team.
Black Chiavari questions
How much is a black Chiavari chair to hire?
KSh 250 per chair for 24 hours, set out and collected. Transport is added by distance on your quote.
Can I mix black and gold Chiavari chairs?
Yes. They are the same design in two finishes, each priced on its own line.
Do black Chiavari chairs come with a cushion?
The pad is a separate piece on this design. Tell us black or white with your date and we confirm what goes out.
What are the dimensions of a black Chiavari chair?
Makers of this design give about 92 cm tall, 39 to 40 cm wide and a 44 to 45 cm seat. Ask us to measure ours if it matters.
Are black Tiffany chairs the same as black Chiavari chairs?
Yes, two trade names for one chair.
What happens if something gets damaged or goes missing?
Tell us straight away — do not try to fix it or set it aside quietly, because that usually makes it worse. Ordinary wear and tear is expected and is never charged. Beyond that, you are responsible for loss or damage while items are in your care: broken chairs, tables or glassware, damaged décor, burns, torn fabric, permanent staining, lost cushions, missing tent components, and damage caused by guests or by moving things without permission. Where something is repairable we charge the reasonable repair cost; where it is lost or beyond economical repair, the reasonable replacement cost. We can provide photographic or inventory evidence where it is needed.
Can I change my order after paying the deposit?
Yes, and the earlier the better — please give us at least 48 hours where you can. Additions are subject to what is in stock and are invoiced separately; last-minute additions are never guaranteed. Reductions are where it gets more complicated: once we have committed stock, crew and transport to your event, a reduction of more than 10% may not reduce the price proportionally, and customised items already made cannot normally be cancelled.
