Bresland Black Counter Stool

Unlike a traditional flat seat, the saddle seat on this stool is carved into a contoured "U" shape. This ergonomic design is hand-picked for its ability to distribute weight more evenly and provide better support for the rider, making it a more comfortable option for casual dining or working from home at the kitchen counter.

This stool features a 26-inch seat height, which is the industry standard for counter-height surfaces. It is designed to pair perfectly with kitchen islands and counters that stand approximately 36 inches high, providing the ideal 10 to 12 inches of legroom for a comfortable seated experience.

Yes, customer assembly is required for this item. While our delivery teams handle setup for many larger pieces, this specific stool is designed for straightforward home assembly. This allows for more efficient shipping while ensuring the solid wood components are securely joined for long-term stability.

Yes, a backless, minimalist stool is an excellent choice for urban apartments or smaller floor plans. Because this stool lacks a high back, it can be tucked completely underneath the counter or island when not in use. This keeps walkways clear and maintains an open, unobstructed sightline, which helps smaller rooms feel more spacious.

This stool is crafted from solid elm wood, a hardwood favored in furniture making for its exceptional durability and prominent grain. Solid elm is particularly resistant to splitting and is known for its strength, ensuring that this minimalist piece can withstand the rigors of daily use in a high-traffic kitchen environment.

Based on our expertise in furniture care, we recommend dusting the solid elm surface regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent debris buildup. For spills or stains, use a cloth dampened with mild soap and water, then dry the surface immediately. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as they can strip the black finish and damage the natural integrity of the wood.
