Young Red Haired Girl With A Cyan Necklace Strips Her Dress And White Stockings On The Bar Stool In The Blue Studio

There are many different constructions. Bar stools are often made of wood or metal. There are bar stools with and without armrests, back, and padding on the seat surface. Bar stools can range from basic wooden designs to extremely detailed ones with a custom height for the perfect fit. Extra tall and extra short are common features, as well as indoor bar stools and outdoor bar stools. Some bar stools have backs, while most do not.
In commercial settings, swivel and floor mounted bar stools are common, floor mounting renders the stool less likely to be moved, stolen or used as a weapon. Floor mounted stools generally are mounted on a column but stools with legs can also be secured to the floor using metal angles.
The normal seat height for a bar stool is 30" (76 cm) with a 26" (66 cm) stool being used against kitchen counters. Extra tall 36" (91 cm) stools are increasingly used in contemporary styles with high pub tables to create a striking visual effect in modern interiors. By comparison a conventional dining chair seat height is 18" (46 cm).
The seating industry is a major consumer of polyurethane foam as padding for comfort.
