Wooden Bar Stools

What a wooden bar stool is and which woods there are

A wooden bar stool is a high seat where the seat, the legs or the whole frame are made of solid wood. The wood determines the character. Solid mango is light and strong, with a lively figure. Reclaimed teak has character and a weathered, warm look in which every piece is unique. Oak is classic and durable, with a timeless look. Because this is natural wood, no two bar stools are exactly alike, which makes every one special.

Sizing advice: the right seat height

The right seat height determines whether you sit comfortably at your bar or kitchen island. Measure the height of your worktop and leave enough leg room between the seat and the underside of the top. A standard kitchen island usually calls for a different seat height than a high bar. If you are not sure which height you need, the height adjustable models are the answer, because you can simply adapt them to your situation. In our showroom in Enschede you can try out different heights.

Versions and seating comfort

Wooden bar stools come in fixed and height adjustable versions, with either a sleek or a robust design. A wooden seat is comfortable for shorter sitting sessions. If you want to stay comfortable for longer, for example while eating at the bar, a loose seat cushion is a welcome addition. Many of our models are available with an optional cushion, so you choose the balance between the pure wood look and extra softness.

Caring for solid wood

Solid wood stays beautiful with little effort. Dust the bar stool regularly and deal with stains straight away using a slightly damp cloth. Bear in mind that wood can lighten over time in direct sunlight. If you want to keep the colour deep and warm, oiling the wood annually helps. That way the bar stool not only stays beautiful, it also lasts for years.

What else goes with them

Wooden bar stools combine beautifully with a wooden kitchen island or a tree trunk table for a coherent, natural look.

That way your bar or kitchen becomes a place where you like to sit, whether for a quick breakfast or a long evening.
