Why this high bar stool earns its place
There's a proper vintage cue to this one — a wood-framed barstool finished natural rather than stained or painted, with a cross-pattern backrest that's designed to catch the eye rather than disappear against a bar. The seat itself is rattan, which keeps the look consistent with the frame while giving it a bit more give than a solid wood seat pan.
At 1100mm tall on a 450 × 470mm footprint, it's built to proper bar height, and it arrives fully assembled — no build time between delivery and putting it out at the counter. Gross weight is 6.5kg, light enough that staff can lift and reposition stools at close or when resetting the floor without it being a two-person job.
It's rated for indoor use, which fits the vintage wood-and-rattan construction — this is a stool for a bar counter or café floor, not a terrace. Bolero build it for a long service life, which matters given how much a barstool takes over a night: constant mounting, dismounting and knocks that a lighter café chair wouldn't necessarily take. And because it's sold separately rather than boxed in fixed sets, you can order exactly the number of stools a bar run needs rather than buying in multiples of a set size.
