Know before you buy
The seat height of this counter stool is 25 inches, which is designed to fit comfortably under standard kitchen islands or counters that are typically 36 inches high.
The seat is upholstered in 100% polyester fabric with a wear abrasion rating of 15,000 double rubs. While it offers a luxurious look, it is best suited for moderate daily use rather than high-traffic commercial environments.
No, the Ansel Counter Stool is designed specifically for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements may damage the hand-hammered iron frame and the linen-upholstered seat.
The stool features a low-profile backrest with a height of 9.5 inches. While it provides a nice aesthetic touch and some lumbar support, it is designed for shorter periods of sitting rather than extended lounging.
Yes, the Ansel collection includes a matching bar stool version. If your counter or bar surface is higher than 36 inches, the bar stool variant will provide the appropriate seating height.
The stool weighs 42.5 pounds, which gives it a substantial, high-quality feel. The hand-forged iron frame provides a sturdy base that prevents wobbling during normal use.
