Know before you buy
The counter height stool measures 24 inches, which is ideal for standard 36-inch kitchen islands or counters. The 30-inch bar height stool is designed for taller surfaces, typically 40 to 42 inches high.
Hardwoods like Hard Maple and Hickory offer superior density and a smooth grain, while Oak and Quarter Sawn White Oak provide a more prominent, textured grain pattern. Rustic Cherry is a popular choice for those who prefer a warmer tone with natural character markings.
The Athens Stool is engineered for stability and ergonomic support. While the seat is solid wood, it is contoured to provide comfort, though you may consider adding a seat cushion if you plan to use the stools for long dining sessions.
Because these stools are made from solid wood, they should be kept away from direct heat sources and extreme humidity fluctuations to prevent warping. Simply wipe them down with a soft, damp cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners to preserve the finish.
Yes, the customization process allows you to select your preferred wood species and pair it with any of the available finishes. Keep in mind that different wood species absorb stains differently, so the final appearance of a finish may vary slightly depending on the wood you choose.
