Mid-Century Bar Stools

Mid century modern bar stools in walnut and wood

Mid century modern bar stools lean on wood tones. Most here pair a walnut finish with a contrasting seat: black or beige vegan leather, sage green or cream linen, or woven cane. The backless swivel stools stand on solid wood bentwood legs with a metal footrest, and the curved-back counter stools set a linen seat on black metal or walnut-grain legs.

Mid century counter height bar stools

Mid century counter height bar stools make up most of the range, with seats about 26 inches high for a standard 36 inch island or peninsula, the height most kitchens are built to. The backless bar stools sit at 30 inches for a 40 to 42 inch bar. The bentwood vegan leather stools adjust on a gas lift, so set them to your counter before you sit.

Mid century swivel bar stools and backs

Mid century swivel bar stools turn a full 360 degrees, and nearly every stool here swivels. Backless pairs tuck fully under the counter and suit a narrow kitchen. Cane-back and bentwood stools give support for longer meals, and the rattan-back vegan leather pair adds texture. Weight ratings run from 300 to 350 pounds per stool where stated.

Mid century style bar stools for the room

Mid century style bar stools look best when the wood tone echoes something nearby: a walnut dining table, open shelves or a wood floor. Beige, cream and black seats stay neutral, while blue, green and camel add a period accent. Allow about 24 inches of counter per stool. Wipe vegan leather with a damp cloth, vacuum linen and fabric seats, and dust cane with a soft brush.
