Designs range from French Country to tropical and casual to a hint of the Mediterranean. Counter Stools are slightly lower than a standard bar stool (with seat heights usually around 30-31 inches) and enable you to sit comfortably at lower work surfaces - like kitchen counter tops. Counter stools have gone beyond the ordinary in this striking collection. Wood counter stools are warm and practical with quality construction and upholstery options. Metal brings decorative appeal that's strong and resistant to wear.
