Know before you buy
The stationary base is fixed in place, while the 360-degree swivel allows for full rotation in any direction. The memory swivel is a specialized mechanism that automatically returns the seat to its original forward-facing position after you stand up, keeping your bar area looking tidy.
The 24-inch stool is designed for standard counter-height surfaces, typically around 36 inches high. The 30-inch stool is intended for bar-height surfaces, which are usually 40 to 42 inches high. Measure from the floor to the underside of your counter to ensure you have at least 9 to 12 inches of legroom.
Yes, mortise and tenon is a traditional joinery technique prized for its strength and longevity. By interlocking the wood pieces rather than relying solely on glue or screws, it creates a rigid frame that can easily withstand the weight and movement of daily use.
Absolutely. You can select a solid wood seat to match the wood species and finish of the stool frame. If you prefer added comfort, you can also opt for upholstery in a wide variety of materials, including leather, microfiber, and performance fabrics.
The double X backrest provides sturdy lumbar support while maintaining an open, airy aesthetic. Because the back height is 18 inches from the seat, it offers enough vertical support to be comfortable for extended periods of sitting.
Harder woods like Hard Maple, Hickory, or Quarter Sawn White Oak are excellent choices for high-traffic homes due to their density and resistance to dents. If you prefer a rustic aesthetic, Rustic Cherry or Rustic Hickory are also very durable and naturally hide minor wear and tear well.
