Cauthorn Ivory Swivel Barstool

While the Cauthorn stool offers a generous, comfortable seat, its 19-inch depth and straight-leg design allow it to maintain a relatively efficient footprint. If you are working with a compact floor plan, the swivel feature is particularly beneficial because it reduces the need to move the stool backward into a high-traffic walkway when someone wants to sit down or stand up.

The 360-degree swivel functionality is a premium feature that facilitates easier conversation and allows you to enter or exit the seat without needing to push the heavy wood frame across the floor. Combined with the 40.5-inch solid back, this design provides significantly more lumbar support and stability than backless alternatives, making it an excellent choice for those who use their bar seating for long dinners or as a temporary workspace.

This stool has a width of 22.5 inches. To ensure your guests have enough elbow room and can utilize the swivel function comfortably, we recommend a "center-to-center" spacing of approximately 28 to 30 inches. For example, a 6-foot (72-inch) bar would comfortably accommodate two of these stools, while an 8-foot bar could fit three.

This stool is upholstered in 100% polyester, a synthetic fiber chosen for its impressive durability and resistance to wear. While the ivory color offers a clean, contemporary aesthetic, the polyester material is naturally more stain-resistant than natural fibers like cotton or linen. For accidental spills, we recommend immediate spot cleaning with a mild water-based solution to maintain the fabric's integrity.

This stool features a seat height of 30 inches, which is specifically designed for "bar height" surfaces (typically 40 to 42 inches high). While many kitchen islands are built at "counter height" (36 inches), this model is best suited for taller home bars or raised breakfast nooks. For optimal comfort and legroom, our experts recommend maintaining a 10-to-12-inch gap between the seat and the underside of your counter.

This barstool is designed with sturdy, straight wood legs. To protect your flooring from potential scuffs—especially in high-use areas like the kitchen—we recommend applying high-quality felt pads or nylon glides to the base of each leg. Our maintenance guidelines suggest checking these pads periodically for wear to ensure your floors remain pristine.

While customer assembly is required for this item, it is designed for straightforward home setup. All necessary hardware is included. We provide detailed assembly instructions to ensure the swivel mechanism and solid back are securely attached, ensuring long-term structural stability.
