With its light wood alliance and silver metal tone, this contemporary second-hand bar stool adds a sober and neat touch around a counter. Its metal footrest complements the wooden seat and provides a pleasant support for having coffee, working for a while, or sharing an aperitif. The contrast of materials gives it a clean look, easy to match with a mineral countertop, metal stools, or vintage chairs. In a kitchen, it pairs well with an island and a glass pendant light to create a precise and modern dining corner. Height: 80 cm Diameter: 38 cm A brief history of the bar stool Directly derived from counter furniture of the 1920s, the bar stool is the high evolution of the classic stool, designed to allow seating at standing height. It is characterized by a slender base and the essential presence of a footrest, a technical innovation intended to relieve the legs. Long confined to bistros and cabarets, it makes its way into our homes with the rise of American kitchens, becoming a symbol of relaxed vertical conviviality.
