A Bar Stool Marked by One Seam

The Pomona bar stools arrive as a coordinated pair, each built on a black powder-coated steel frame. The seat is shaped rather than flat, dished through the centre and rising at the sides and the front edge, so the body settles into it instead of resting on top. Behind it the back panel is carried on two slim posts that leave a clear gap between panel and seat, and a single cross seam divides its face into four quarters. Distressed faux suede covers both surfaces, sprayed and rubbed so the tone breaks light and dark across the grain. Four round legs splay outward and taper toward the floor, tied by an X-brace that doubles as a footrest, and each leg ends in a threaded leveler that turns to sit flush on an uneven floor.

Features

• Saddle Shaped Seat dishes through the centre and lifts at the sides and front edge, so the seat holds a shape instead of presenting a flat pad
• Open Back Panel stands clear of the seat on two slim posts, leaving daylight between the two and keeping the whole upper half visually light
• Single Cross Seam divides the back panel into four quarters, the one piece of surface detail on an otherwise plain face
• Distressed Faux Suede is sprayed and rubbed across both the seat and the back so the tone shifts light to dark rather than reading as one flat colour
• Powder-Coated Steel Frame carries the seat, the back posts and all four legs in the same matte black finish from top to floor
• X-Brace Footrest ties the four legs at footrest height and gives both feet a place to rest at every side of the stool
• Threaded Leveling Feet turn up or down at each leg so the stool sits flush on a floor that is not quite level
• 249-Pound Seat Capacity per stool for confident everyday adult seating across the pair
• 36 to 38 Inch Counter Fit matches the seat height to a standard kitchen island or counter, leaving room to cross the legs beneath

Care Instructions

• Brush the faux suede weekly with a soft dry brush, working in one direction so the nap lies even
• Vacuum on a low setting with a brush attachment, keeping the nozzle off the surface so the nap is not pulled
• Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth, pressing straight down rather than wiping across the nap
• Wipe marks with a cloth lightly dampened in water and mild soap, then dry the area straight away
• Test any cleaner at the back of the panel first, and let the surface dry fully before use
• Lift a flattened patch by brushing gently once dry, restoring the nap to the level of the surface around it
• Keep the stools out of prolonged direct sunlight and away from radiators, both of which stiffen the nap over time
• Wipe the steel frame with a dry cloth, and dry any moisture at the joints and the leveler threads
• Keep the stools indoors, as neither the upholstery nor the powder coat is finished for outdoor exposure
• Retighten the frame bolts by hand after assembly and every few months afterward
• Turn each leveler until all four legs meet the floor before sitting, and check them again after moving the stool
