What is a bar stool?
A bar stool is a tall seat designed for use at bar-height counters, typically 28-30 inches from floor to seat, with a footrest for comfort during extended sitting. Bar height stools are taller than counter stools, which measure 24-26 inches and pair with standard kitchen islands.
What You Get With the Urbia Alfie Marble Bar Stool
- Cast Aluminum Construction -- the frame delivers strength at just 13 pounds for easy repositioning without sacrificing stability.
- Hand-Carved Marble Seat -- each 20% marble top features natural veining variation and resists stains and scratches for low-maintenance upkeep.
- Integrated Footrest -- four sturdy legs include a metal footrest positioned for ergonomic leg support during meals and conversations.
- Floor Protection -- rubber feet prevent scuffs on hardwood, tile, and laminate surfaces while stabilizing the stool on uneven floors.
- Two Designer Finishes -- Fantasy Black with Bronze accents or Toronto Sand with Antique Nickel complement both modern and traditional interiors.
- Backless Profile -- the open silhouette tucks fully under counters and bars to maximize floor space in compact kitchens.
Where does a marble bar stool work best?
The Alfie pairs naturally with modern bar and pub tables in open-concept kitchens, where its lightweight aluminum frame allows quick rearrangement for parties. Position two or three stools at a bar-height counter for casual dining, or mix finishes for visual interest in eclectic spaces. For cohesive design, coordinate the metal finish with hardware and lighting fixtures in your living room.
