Know before you buy
While the stool is specified for both indoor and outdoor use, the saddle leather seat is a natural material. To preserve its finish and prevent damage, we recommend keeping it in a covered outdoor area away from direct rain or prolonged harsh sunlight.
The saddle leather is firm and provides excellent structural support. While it is not a cushioned seat, the ergonomic design and high-quality material make it comfortable for casual use as a stool.
Keep the leather clean by dusting it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or conditioners, as these can alter the texture and color of the natural hide.
Yes, the molded fiberglass base provides a solid, weighted foundation. Its wide footprint ensures it remains stable when used as a surface for books, drinks, or decorative objects.
The base is crafted from molded fiberglass, which offers a durable, sculptural form that is easy to wipe clean. The seat is upholstered in premium saddle leather, which is hand-stitched to provide a tactile, sophisticated contrast to the smooth base.
