Spring Cottage Blue Counter Height Stool

This stool features a 25-inch seat height, which is specifically engineered for standard counter-height surfaces (typically 35 to 36 inches tall). Following the industry-standard "10-12 inch rule," this height ensures optimal legroom and comfort between the seat and the underside of your counter or island.

Based on our expertise in furniture care, we recommend regular maintenance to preserve the fabric and finish. Dust the pine veneers with a soft cloth and vacuum the upholstered seat frequently to remove surface debris. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If needed, a light application of mild soap and warm water can be used for spot cleaning, though we suggest testing a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure colorfastness.

Designed for both style and support, this stool is an excellent choice for extended use. It features a high-density padded seat upholstered in soft fabric and a supportive X-back design. This combination provides the necessary cushioning and lumbar support for casual dining, socializing, or working from a kitchen island.

With a width of 23.75 inches, we recommend allowing approximately 28 to 30 inches of space per person (measuring from the center of one stool to the next). This spacing ensures adequate elbow room and easy movement. For example, a 6-foot kitchen island typically accommodates two of these stools comfortably, while a larger 8-foot island can host three.

Yes, this stool is well-suited for urban apartment living or smaller kitchens. Despite having a full back for comfort, its open X-back design creates a sense of visual transparency that prevents a room from feeling crowded. Additionally, the straight-leg design and 18.25-inch depth help maintain a slim profile that fits neatly against a counter.

This stool is specifically crafted to enhance cottage and coastal aesthetics. The fresh blue finish and pine veneers provide a light, airy feel, while the X-back design adds a touch of classic farmhouse charm. Its versatile "Spring Cottage" style makes it a definitive accent piece for homes looking to establish a relaxed, nautical, or rustic vibe.

To protect your flooring, we recommend applying felt or rubber pads to the bottom of the straight legs. This is a highly recommended practice for any furniture on hardwood, tile, or laminate surfaces, as it reduces friction and prevents the finish from scuffing your floors during daily use.
