The Laverno Stool with Bolt Down Base takes the retro Laverno design and anchors it to the floor. A thick round upholstered seat swivels atop a steel pedestal column, a curved upholstered back pad sits on a slender offset support, and a round foot ring gives guests a place to rest their feet, recalling classic diner counters with a cleaner, more refined finish.
Bolted stools stay exactly where you put them, which keeps long bar and counter runs perfectly aligned and frees up floor space for staff and guests. It is offered at bar, counter and ADA heights, and the metal finish and upholstery can be tuned from bright and playful (shown in white with green) to warm and classic.
The Laverno has a welded steel frame. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and its foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. The swivel seat has an auto-return. These stools must be bolted to the floor and are not intended to be used freestanding; please consult a licensed contractor for installation. Hardware to bolt the stools to the floor is not included. It ships fully assembled from the factory and is backed by a 3-year frame structural warranty and a 1-year finish and upholstery warranty from shipment.
