Paulson Stool

The Paulson Stool brings the look of the Paulson Chair up to bar height. Its metal frame is finished in a convincing wood grain, with slim tapered legs, a full perimeter footrest and a curved, upholstered back panel that floats above a padded faux leather seat. The result is a warm, wood-toned stool with a tidy mid-century profile and the durability of metal.

The upholstered back gives guests real support for lingering at the bar, and the faux leather seat in espresso or black wipes clean easily between services. It is part of a coordinating chair and stool pair with the Paulson Chair, so you can carry one look from the dining room to the bar.

Built for commercial use

The Paulson Stool's metal frame is welded, not bolted, so it stays rigid under constant use at a busy bar. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and its foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. It ships fully assembled from the factory and carries our 3-year frame structural warranty and 1-year finish and upholstery warranty from shipment.
