Know before you buy
The primary difference is the height. The SK10 is designed for bar-height surfaces, while the SK8 is shorter and intended for standard kitchen counter-height surfaces.
The Oiled Oak offers a natural, warm look that highlights the wood grain, while the Smoked Oiled Oak provides a deeper, richer tone. The Black Lacquered Oak is a solid choice if you prefer a more modern, uniform aesthetic that hides the wood grain.
Yes, the seat is designed with comfort in mind, and the distinctive curved backrest provides ergonomic support that cradles the back, making it suitable for extended use.
Absolutely. The chairs are available in a wide range of fabric groups from 1 to 6 and leather groups from 1 to 3, allowing you to select a texture and color that coordinates with your current interior.
The four-leg frame is engineered for structural integrity and balance. It provides a sturdy, stable base that is well-suited for daily use in both residential and professional settings.
