Know before you buy
The seat height is 26 inches, which is standard for a counter-height stool. It is designed to fit comfortably under counters that are typically 36 inches high.
Seagrass is a natural fiber that will gradually mellow in color. Over time, it develops a muted, lived-in patina that adds character to the stool.
The hand-wrapped seagrass provides a firm, supportive seat with a natural texture. While it offers a bit of give, it is best suited for casual dining or kitchen tasks rather than long-duration lounge seating.
The Portside Counter Stool arrives fully assembled. You can place it directly into your space upon delivery.
To maintain the stool, dust the ash frame with a soft, dry cloth. For the seagrass, you can gently vacuum with a brush attachment or wipe it down with a slightly damp cloth to remove debris, ensuring it dries completely afterward.
Because the seagrass is a natural material, there will be variations in color and texture from piece to piece. These unique characteristics are intentional and part of the stool's artisanal design.
