What to look for in bar & counter stools
A swivel base can improve access at an island, while fixed frames often feel lighter and more tailored; footrest placement and seat depth have a direct effect on comfort during longer use.
Materials and craftsmanship
The collection draws on rope, woven, brass, aluminium and teak. Upholstered detailing adds further texture and individuality. Texture and technique bring depth, individuality and visual interest to the bar & counter stools range.
Scale, placement and everyday use
Measure from the floor to the underside of the counter before selecting a stool. Counter stools are generally lower than bar stools, and adequate space is needed between the seat and benchtop. Also allow enough width between stools for comfortable movement.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a bar stool and a counter stool?
Counter stools are designed for standard kitchen counters and are lower than bar stools, which suit taller bar-height surfaces. Always match the exact seat height to your benchtop.
How much space should I allow between stools?
Allow enough width for each person to sit and move comfortably without the frames touching. The exact spacing depends on the stool width, arms and whether the seat swivels.
