Quentin Stool

The Quentin Stool pairs a plush barrel-style seat with a lighter, airy frame. The upholstered seat curves up into a low, wraparound back, which is carried on slim metal back supports that rise from the seat like a row of spindles. Below, four solid wood legs splay gently to a metal foot ring, and the seat swivels so guests can turn toward the bar or the conversation without shifting the stool.

Shown in cognac upholstery over natural wood with a brass-tone foot rest, the Quentin brings the warmth of a club chair to bar and counter height. It is available as a bar stool and as a counter stool, and it can be finished in a wide range of woods, metal colors, leathers, faux leathers and fabrics to suit everything from a steakhouse bar to a hotel lobby lounge.

Design details

• Barrel-style upholstered seat with a low, curved back
• Slim metal back supports that give the back an open, spindle look
• Swivel seat with auto-return
• Solid wood legs with a metal foot rest and metal foot caps
• Available in bar height (QUEN-BS) and counter height (QUEN-CS)

Built for commercial use

The Quentin has a solid wood frame built with mortise-and-tenon joinery and very few bolted connections, paired with metal supports and a metal foot rest that take the daily scuffs of bar service. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and its foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. Like all of our seating, it ships fully assembled from the factory, and it carries a 3-year frame structural warranty and a 1-year finish and upholstery warranty from shipment. Each stool comes standard with heavy-duty nail-on nylon glides, suitable for most commercial floor types, including hardwood, tile, stone, concrete and carpet.
