Set of 2 Linen Swivel Bar Stools with Curved Backs and Nailhead Trim, 31.5 Inch Seat

Measure before you order

Thirty one and a half inches is taller than the 28 in to 30 in most bar stools use. Under a 43 in top it leaves 11.5 in of knee room, which is right. Under a 40 in top it leaves 8.5 in, which is tight.

Where they belong

Tall stools want a tall top. At a 42 in or 43 in bar these are comfortable, and the weathered grey timber keeps them from looking heavy at a height where most stools do.

Four layers in the seat

Linen, sponge, an engineered board and a non woven backing. On a swivelling seat the board is the part that matters: it keeps the pad flat instead of dishing at the front edge where people get on and off.

The three details

Studs around the seat and back, a back that curves round rather than sitting flat, and a closed ring for your feet. The studs also pin the cover down at the edge, which is where upholstery lifts first.

Best under a 42 in to 43 in bar.

High resilience sponge under linen.

On a plate under the seat.

Around the seat and the back.

A closed ring around the legs.

The manufacturer's stated maximum load.

What we stand behind

• The 17 in seat, the 3.5 in cushion, the 31.5 in seat height, the 41 in overall height, the 11 in footrest ring, the 19 in base and the 330 lb capacity all come from this listing's own drawing, which also prints the 40 in to 43 in bar height.
• At 31.5 in this is taller than the 28 in to 30 in most bar stools use. Under a 40 in top it leaves 8.5 in of knee room, which is less than the 10 in to 12 in generally recommended.
• The seat is built from linen, sponge, an engineered board and a non woven backing, which the maker sets out layer by layer.
• No rub count or cleaning code is published for the linen, and no swivel bearing rating is given.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

What bar height suits them?

Aim for 42 in to 43 in. The maker quotes 40 in to 43 in, but at 40 in a 31.5 in seat leaves only 8.5 in of knee room.

How high is the back?

Ten inches above the seat, curved round on two posts. It supports the lower back rather than the shoulders.

Does the swivel lock?

No lock is described. The seat turns freely through a full circle.

How do I clean the linen?

Vacuum the weave, working around the studs, and blot spills rather than rubbing.
