Sonoma Stool

The Sonoma Stool carries the Sonoma family's slim, tailored look up to bar and counter height. A welded steel frame rises on four straight legs tied together with a perimeter footrest, then turns into straight steel arms finished with solid wood arm caps. The squared upholstered seat and back sit neatly inside the frame, giving the stool the comfort of a dining arm chair at the bar.

Arms and a full back make it a stool guests will happily linger on, which suits steakhouse bars, hotel lounges and club grills where people settle in for the evening. It comes in bar and counter heights, pairs directly with the Sonoma Arm Chair for a coordinated dining and bar program, and is part of our Steakhouse Collection. The frame is offered in powder coat or brushed brass.

Built for commercial use

The Sonoma Stool frame is welded steel, not bolted, so it stays tight under daily bar use. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and the foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. 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.
