CARE
- Dab spills immediately with a clean, colorfast towel in distilled water.
- Spot clean with a damp cloth or sponge, gently blotting to remove excess water, then air dry. For stains that can't be removed as such, professional cleaning is advised.
- For leather, never use detergents, polishes, or preservers as they can remove natural oils.
- To keep your piece looking its best, we recommend periodically fluffing cushions and vacuuming crevices.
- To prevent fading, keep fabric or leather out of direct sunlight.
- For leather, most surface scratches will fade over time if you rub them with your fingertips. Not all scratches have the same depth, and this may not work on deeper scratches.
- Thorough cleaning is recommended every 12 to 24 months. Do not wait for severe soiling. We recommend a professional in-home upholstery cleaning service.
BASE
- Clean with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth; dry thoroughly.
- Avoid harsh cleaners (including ammonia-based glass cleaners) and abrasives as they will damage the finish.
FABRIC
- Brush or vacuum regularly (use a nonmetallic stiff-bristle brush).
- Protect from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
- Dab spills immediately with a soft white cloth dampened with distilled water (not tap water). Test fabric cleaners first in an inconspicuous area. Do not saturate fabric with cleaner. Pat instead of rub to avoid altering texture. Clean stain from outer edge to prevent "circling."
- Thorough cleaning is recommended every 12–24 months. Do not wait for severe soiling. We recommend a professional in-home upholstery cleaning service.
- Do not remove cushion casings for cleaning. Unlike slipcovers, upholstered casings are not meant to be removed.
LEATHER
- Never use detergents, polishes, preservers or saddle soap. They can remove natural oils.
- Dust or vacuum for routine maintenance.
- Do not place in direct sunlight; it will lighten or discolor leather over time.
- Dab spills immediately with a soft white cloth dampened in distilled water (not tap water). If spill penetrates leather, use lukewarm distilled water and a soft white cloth to massage stain and surrounding area. Blot with a dry cloth and allow leather to air dry.
- Most surface scratches will fade over time if you rub them with your fingertips. Friction and heat from rubbing helps to redistribute wax in surrounding areas to cover the scratch. Not all scratches have the same depth, and this may not work on deeper scratches.
COMPOSITION & CONSTRUCTION
- Our leather upholstered products are constructed from aniline leather. Only the top 5% of hides can be made into aniline leather, making it the finest available. The full-grain or top-grain leathers are soaked in transparent nontoxic dye, with no subsequent pigmented finish coats applied. Dye penetrates the hides, letting the natural grain show through. Our ivory leather is an exception to this process; it is semi-aniline dyed, with a layer of pigment applied afterwards.
- Anilines have natural markings that vary from hide to hide. They also have color variations due to the leather's ability to accept dyes differently in various areas of a hide. Markings and shading distinguish genuine leather from man-made materials. Appreciating shade differences among hides also means appreciating them on individual furniture pieces, because no two pieces can be produced from a single hide.
- Our leathers appeal to customers who find the natural color variations, markings and patina of pure aniline leathers unique and beautiful. They may not appeal to customers who want uniform color and surface commonly seen on less expensive leathers that are heavily corrected and pigmented.

Customer Reviews
Lisa********kins
Looks like high-end designer furniture but priced for real people. The upholstered seat makes a huge difference in comfort compared to metal or wood. After a long day, these are my happy place. Also, zero squeaking—bless you, silent hinges.
Rey*******mann
Good quality, nice design, but the seat height took some getting used to. Had to adjust my bar table pad. Not a dealbreaker, just unexpected. Otherwise, looks great and feels well-built.
Ms. M**********anton
Love the look and comfort, but wish the legs were slightly wider for better stability. Still solid overall and super easy to assemble. Took me 15 minutes and zero rage-throwing tools. A+ in my book.
Let*******non
These stools are so comfortable I almost missed dinner prep because I was chatting on one. Solid build, chic design, and the gray color matches everything. Upgrade your space without breaking the bank.
Dr. ********iel
I was worried about the seat being too firm, but it's just right—great support for long chats over wine. The upholstery resists spills like a champ. Accidentally knocked over red wine, wiped it off with a damp cloth, and no trace left. Miracle worker!
Mic******ger
One of the bolts arrived stripped, and the stool wobbles slightly even after tightening. Contacted customer service—they sent a replacement part fast. Quality control hiccup, but handled well. Still docking a star though.
Mau******ne
I’ve had these for three months now, and they still look brand new. The fabric doesn’t pill or fade, and the cushion stays supportive. Even my dog stopped avoiding them (and he’s picky about furniture). 10/10 would recommend.
Aft******el
Stylish, sturdy, and worth every penny. They feel way more expensive than they are. I got the counter height, and they pair perfectly with my breakfast bar. No wobbling, even when my brother uses it as a mini stage after two beers.
Wils*********n II
Elegant, modern, and oh-so-comfy. These elevated my tiny apartment bar area from 'meh' to 'magazine spread.' Friends keep asking where I got them. Hint: I’m not telling.
Forr*********r IV
These bar stools are a game-changer! Super comfy and the fabric is surprisingly durable. My cat tried to claw it—no luck, kitty. Looks sleek at my kitchen island and holds up great after daily use. Assembly was a breeze, like IKEA but without the existential crisis.
