Ellian Gray Counter Height Stool, Set of 2

To ensure a comfortable dining experience, we recommend a 10 to 12-inch gap between the stool seat and the underside of your counter. With a seat height of 25.75 inches, these stools are expertly designed for standard kitchen counters that typically stand 36 inches high. This specific height provides ample legroom while maintaining an ergonomic posture for meals or work.

Yes, stools featuring a full backrest, like this one, provide significantly more lumbar support compared to low-back or backless alternatives. This makes them an excellent choice for "work-from-home" sessions at the kitchen island or long weekend brunches. The combination of a high-back design and a cushioned square seat ensures you remain supported and comfortable for longer durations.

This stool captures the essence of mid-century modern design through its clean, geometric lines and the use of tapered, straight legs. The "retro-inspired elegance" is achieved by pairing industrial iron with the luxury of velvet, a hallmark of 1950s and 60s upscale interiors. This timeless aesthetic allows the stools to act as a bridge between classic and contemporary kitchen decors.

The velvet used on this stool offers a sumptuous, high-end feel while being surprisingly resilient. Because of its dense pile, it provides a layer of comfort that is softer to the touch than flat-weave fabrics. To maintain its retro-inspired elegance, our care experts recommend regular dusting with a soft cloth. For accidental spills, we suggest blotting immediately with a clean, damp cloth and a drop of mild detergent to preserve the fabric's rich gray color.

These stools feature straight iron legs which provide excellent weight distribution. To provide maximum protection for high-end flooring like hardwood or tile, we recommend applying felt pads or silicone glides to the base of each leg. This simple addition prevents potential scratches and allows the stools to be moved quietly across the room.

Absolutely. With a width of 20.5 inches and a depth of 18.25 inches, these stools offer a streamlined profile that fits neatly at a kitchen island without overcrowding the walkway. The stationary, straight-leg design allows you to tuck them closer to the counter when not in use, maximizing your floor space. This makes them a smart solution for smaller living environments where both style and square footage are at a premium.

This stool is constructed with a solid iron frame, which offers superior stability and structural integrity compared to lighter materials. Iron is highly resistant to warping or wobbling over time, ensuring the stool remains stationary and secure. Its sleek black finish provides a high-contrast, modern aesthetic that is also very easy to maintain; simply wipe the frame with a soft cloth and mild soap to keep it looking pristine.
