Oliver Stool

The Oliver Stool takes the slim, mid-century look of the Oliver Chair to bar height. A rectangular upholstered back pad rides on two slender steel posts above a padded seat, and the thin steel legs are tied together with a perimeter footrest and lower stretchers. The open gap between seat and back keeps the stool airy and graphic along a bar.

Like the chair, the Oliver Stool can be finished in a broad range of powder coats, premium metallic finishes or a custom color, and upholstered in velvet, performance fabric, faux leather, leather or COM. It is offered in bar and counter versions, so one look can run from the main bar to a kitchen counter or communal high-top. It coordinates with the Oliver Chair for dining areas.
