Know before you buy
The primary difference is the wood species and color. The American black walnut frame offers a darker, richer tone with a prominent grain, while the white oak frame provides a lighter, more neutral aesthetic that fits well in brighter, airy spaces.
Yes, the premium leather is selected for its durability and ability to age gracefully. While it is robust, we recommend wiping up spills immediately and avoiding direct sunlight to maintain the leather's texture and color over time.
The Notello is designed for casual, shorter-term seating like breakfast or quick drinks at a counter. While the foam-padded seat is comfortable, the backless structure is intended to encourage an upright posture rather than lounging.
No, the Notello stool is strictly for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor humidity, temperature fluctuations, and direct sunlight can damage the solid wood frame and degrade the leather upholstery.
For routine cleaning, simply wipe the seat with a soft, dry cloth. If you need a deeper clean, use a leather-specific conditioner or cleaner, testing it on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't affect the finish.
