Know before you buy
The James Bar Stool is upholstered in 100% genuine leather, which provides a natural texture and durability that develops a unique patina over time.
The seat features a high-density foam cushion designed to maintain its shape and provide firm, supportive comfort, making it suitable for longer periods of use at a kitchen island or bar.
Yes, the backless, minimalist profile allows the stools to tuck completely underneath most standard-height bar counters, helping to save floor space when they are not in use.
The stool stands 29 inches high. It is designed to pair best with standard bar-height surfaces, which typically measure between 40 and 42 inches from the floor to the top of the counter.
To maintain the leather, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth and use a leather conditioner periodically to prevent drying. The brown-finished frame can be kept clean by dusting with a soft cloth; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could strip the finish.
