Know before you buy
This is a counter-height stool, designed to fit standard kitchen counters that are typically 36 inches high.
The upholstery is rated 'S' for cleaning, meaning it requires a water-free, solvent-based cleaner. Avoid using water or wet cleaning methods to prevent damage to the fabric.
The rush seat provides a firm, supportive base, but the included linen-blend cushion is intended to be used with the stool to provide the intended level of comfort and aesthetic finish.
The stool is built using mortise and tenon joinery, a traditional woodworking technique that provides superior structural integrity and long-term stability compared to simple glued joints.
The Dover Crescent finish is a light, neutral oak tone. While it is designed to be versatile, wood grain and stain absorption can vary, so it is best viewed as a sophisticated, natural-leaning finish that complements most transitional and modern spaces.
