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 counter-height stool is made of hardwood throughout, wooden seat included, in a choice of finishes. The seat sits at 25.5 inches, right for a standard kitchen counter, and a low footrest ring gives feet a place. A bowed top rail caps two crossed splats, curved hoops brace the splayed legs, and it carries up to 330 lbs. Small non-marking caps finish the feet.
It suits a kitchen island in a pale, simple kitchen, where someone can perch with a cup of tea while the bread is in the oven and friends can gather on a Friday evening. Style it with white oak, linen and a jug of Queen Anne's lace. This listing is for one stool.
