Know before you buy
The stationary base is fixed in place, while the 360-degree swivel allows for full rotation. The memory swivel option includes a mechanism that automatically returns the seat to its original forward-facing position when not in use, keeping your seating area looking tidy.
The 24-inch stool is designed for standard counter-height surfaces, typically 36 inches tall. The 30-inch stool is intended for bar-height surfaces, which are usually 42 inches tall. We recommend leaving about 10 to 12 inches of clearance between the seat and the underside of your counter for optimal legroom.
Yes, you can upgrade from the standard scooped wood seat to a variety of upholstery options, including faux leather, microfiber, and ultraleather. These options provide extra cushioning and can be further customized with optional nail head trim for a more decorative look.
This stool is handcrafted in the USA using traditional mortise and tenon joinery combined with pocket screw construction. This method ensures a rigid, long-lasting frame that can withstand daily use in high-traffic areas of your home.
Hardwoods like Hard Maple, Hickory, and Quarter Sawn White Oak are excellent choices for high-traffic areas due to their superior density and resistance to dents. If you prefer a more rustic aesthetic, Rustic Cherry or Rustic Hickory offer similar durability while highlighting the natural character of the wood.
Yes, the steam-bent slats are designed to follow the natural curve of your back, providing ergonomic support that is more comfortable than flat, rigid backrests. This design choice maintains the stool's Shaker aesthetic while significantly improving comfort for extended use.
