Know before you buy
The Alice Sonoma stool has a seat height of 26 inches. It is specifically designed for standard counter-height surfaces, which typically measure between 34 and 36 inches from the floor.
This leather is rated for X-code maintenance, meaning it should be cleaned only by vacuuming or using a light brush. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as they can damage the finish of the exclusive top-grain material.
Yes, the frame is constructed from solid beech wood using corner-block and cleat joinery. This traditional construction method provides significant structural integrity and stability for everyday seating.
The armless design provides a sleek, space-saving profile that allows the stool to tuck easily under most counters. While it lacks armrests, the vertical channeling and supportive backrest are designed to provide a comfortable, upright seating experience.
