Stella High Back Stool with Wood Seat

The Stella High Back Stool with Wood Seat is the industrial bistro bar stool with a tall back and a solid wood seat. Formed steel legs taper as they rise, footrest rails tie the frame together, and a tall curved back gives guests something to lean into during a long evening at the bar. The wood seat, shown in a natural tone against a metallic frame in the photo, adds warmth and a handmade feel to the steel.

This version is made at bar height, with a 29.5" seat height that suits standard bar tops. Mix and match frame colors and wood finishes to fit anything from a polished steakhouse to a relaxed neighborhood taproom. For a roomier seat, see the Stella High Back Stool with Large Wood Seat, and for matching table seating, the Stella Chair with Wood Seat.

Each stool comes standard with heavy-duty nylon glides, suitable for most commercial floor types, including hardwood, tile, stone, concrete and carpet.
