Rattan or aluminum frame: which choice for your stools?

The frame of your stool is a key element in choosing durability and use. We offer two options adapted to different needs: rattan and aluminum.

Rattan frame stools: for indoor and semi-open spaces

Rattan is a natural, light, and warm material that brings a touch of authenticity to your interior or semi-open spaces. It is an ideal option for covered terraces or semi-outdoor areas, where a natural and organic look is desired.

Aluminum frame stools: for outdoor use all year round

Aluminum is perfect for outdoor use, especially for terraces, gardens, or spaces exposed to bad weather. This material is resistant to climatic conditions and requires little maintenance, while offering an elegant and modern look.

Quality weaves for each frame

Our weaving artisans create wonders on both types of frames, whether for rattan or aluminum. The jacquard weave provides a unique and sophisticated finish, while being durable and easy to maintain.

What is the ideal height for a high-top stool?

The height of the stool depends on the type of countertop it will be paired with. It is essential to leave enough space between the seat and the countertop to ensure comfortable seating. Here are the recommended heights depending on the use:

Height for a bar stool

For a bar measuring between 105 and 110 cm in height, a stool with a seat height of 75 to 80 cm is recommended. This allows for a comfortable distance between the seat and the countertop.

Height for a kitchen or island stool

If you have a kitchen island or a high-top counter with a height of 90 to 95 cm, it is best to choose a stool with a seat height of 60 to 65 cm. This height allows you to sit comfortably while having enough legroom.

Height for a lower stool

For lower spaces, such as a coffee table or occasional use around a table, a stool of 45 to 50 cm will be perfect. This offers comfortable seating while being suitable for lower countertops.

Consider the thickness of the countertop

It is important to consider the thickness of the countertop. A thick countertop may require a slightly higher seat to compensate and ensure sufficient legroom.

How to choose the right height for your stool

Choosing the height of the stool is essential to ensure optimal comfort while preserving the aesthetics of your space. Whether you opt for rattan-framed stools for indoor or semi-outdoor use, or aluminum-framed stools for outdoor use, we offer personalized solutions thanks to our hand-woven fabrics. Choose the perfect height based on your countertop and enjoy elegant and functional seating.
