Why this high bar stool earns its place
The Wessex high stool is built from rubber wood with a vintage finish and comes ready to use straight from the box. Each pair is fully assembled, so there's no workshop time or guesswork about whether the joints will hold. The construction is robust: heavy-duty mortice and tenon joints locked the frame, designed to resist the daily wear of busy bars and restaurants where stools move, shift, and bear weight from guests climbing on and off throughout service.
The seat is deeply padded and upholstered in Bison midnight vinyl—a rich, deep blue that works in contemporary and classic interiors alike. Vinyl is practical for hospitality: spills wipe clean, the material won't stain, and it's resilient enough to handle years of regular use without looking shabby. The round profile keeps things compact, and at 8 kg per stool, they're light enough to reposition during a floor reset.
At 760 × 335 mm, the Wessex high sits at a comfortable height for most standard bar counters. All stools conform to CRIB 5 fire safety regulations, so you can include them in new venue certifications without complications. The vintage wood finish pairs easily with both traditional and contemporary bar designs. Supplied with a 1-year warranty and built to last through years of commercial pace.
