Raise the café chair to bar height and you have the stool of the pub counter and the country kitchen alike. The form dates to the late nineteenth century, when steam-bent wood gave café furniture its light, curving lines, and bentwood chairs soon filled the cafés and brasseries of Paris, from the Left Bank streets of Saint-Germain to the bars of every French market town. It is still at home anywhere people gather at a high counter.
This bar-height stool is all wood, finished in Jet, Driftwood, Ink, Honey, Chestnut or Alabaster from its curved top rail to its feet. Two crossed splats form the back, the seat is a plain wooden one that wipes clean in a moment, and at 29.5 inches it suits a bar-height counter. Curved hoops beneath the seat brace the splayed legs, a footrest ring lower down gives feet a place, and the frame is rated to hold 330 lbs. Non-marking caps protect the floor.
It suits a home bar with a zinc or concrete counter, or a tall table in a loft apartment where friends gather for drinks, and it works for a quick breakfast at the island. The wood looks graphic against white brick, bare-bulb pendants and a row of copper mugs. This listing is for one stool.
