Know before you buy
With a seat height of 30 inches, this stool is designed for standard bar-height surfaces, typically measuring between 40 and 42 inches from the floor to the top of the counter.
Parawood is a dense, sustainable hardwood known for its minimal shrinkage and high structural integrity. Combined with the stool's corner-block and cleat frame construction, it is built to withstand daily use in high-traffic areas.
The saddle-style seat is contoured to provide ergonomic support, making it more comfortable than a flat seat. While it lacks a backrest, the shape encourages good posture for casual dining or drinks.
Because the seat features a fabric blend, we recommend spot cleaning with a mild, water-free solvent or upholstery shampoo. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure colorfastness.
Yes, the armless profile allows the stools to be tucked completely under most bar overhangs when not in use, which is ideal for maintaining a clean, open look in smaller spaces.
