The Berry Barstools

The Berry Barstool is both simple and sophisticated, a union of seeming opposites that we seek as fundamental to our furniture design and construction.  The scooped seat is comfortable.  The legs pass through the seat and are wedged, catching the eye and testifying to strength.

Note the joinery at the front and back stretcher — footrest.  The stretcher is adult-high on one side and kid-high on the other.

These are custom barstools.  There are options beyond the choice of wood.  Given the basic architecture, you may specify the seat height and choose from two seat sizes.

We build the Berry Barstools to fit the height of the bar or the counter where they will serve.  As a general rule, we ask for the height of the bar or counter.  From the counter height, we subtract 12 inches to determine the seat height of the stool.

This photo shows a 30" high stool and a 24" high stool, and illustrates the aging of cherry.  The seats of these stools are 13.5" x 20".  Their footprints are 17" x 22".

We can build Berry Barstools with a smaller seat and footprint.  The seat of the maple barstool shown to the right is 13 ½" x 16".  The footprint is 17" x 18".

These stools tuck out of the way to open floor space for traffic and to clear countertops for work.
