Know before you buy
Each order includes a set of two bar stools.
The seat height is 29.4 inches. These are designed for standard bar-height surfaces, typically 40 to 42 inches high, rather than lower kitchen islands.
Boucle fabric adds great texture, but it can trap crumbs or spills. We recommend spot cleaning with a mild detergent and a soft cloth as soon as a spill occurs to maintain the cream finish.
Each stool takes approximately 40 minutes to assemble. All necessary hardware is included, and the process is straightforward for a single person.
Yes, the curved design of the exposed wood back is intended to provide firm, ergonomic support. While it is not a high-back chair, it offers a stable and comfortable rest for your lower back.
