Know before you buy
The seat height is 25 inches. This is standard for counter-height surfaces, which typically measure between 34 and 36 inches from the floor to the underside of the counter.
The low back is designed to provide lumbar support while maintaining a sleek, open profile. While it offers a comfortable perch for dining or socializing, it is not intended for full-back reclining.
Yes, the stool is available in a variety of performance fabrics specifically engineered to resist stains and wear. These options are ideal for high-traffic areas like kitchen islands or home bars.
With a width of 21.5 inches, we recommend allowing at least 6 to 10 inches of space between the edges of each stool. This ensures comfortable seating and enough room to move in and out easily.
The stools are handcrafted from solid American hardwoods and finished with high-quality protective coatings. They are designed to withstand the rigors of daily kitchen use, though we recommend wiping up spills promptly to maintain the finish.
The Bailey Counter Stool is handcrafted and arrives fully assembled. You can begin using it as soon as it is unboxed.
