Bar Stool & Bar Chair | 18 Models | Industrial Home
Bar Chair & Bar Stool — Comfortable at the Bar
A bar chair or bar stool is indispensable at a bar table, kitchen island or open kitchen. The difference is subtle: a bar stool is sleeker and more fixed, a bar chair has a backrest and sometimes armrests. At Industrial Home you will find both — from compact and affordable to luxurious swivel models in velour or faux leather. Many models are available in sets of 2 or 4.

Swivel or Fixed?
- Swivel — ideal for a kitchen island or open kitchen where you turn in multiple directions. More comfort but requires a bit more space
- Fixed — sleeker and more compact. Great for a bar table against a wall or in a narrow space
- With backrest — for long periods of sitting, dining at the bar table
- Without back (stool) — more informal, more compact, fits under the counter

What is the difference between a bar chair and a bar stool?
A bar stool has no or a minimal backrest and is sleeker. A bar chair has a backrest and sometimes armrests — more comfortable for long periods of sitting. In practice, the terms are used interchangeably.
Are the set prices per piece or for the entire set?
The price we show is for the complete set. Rib (set/2) at €69.95 means 2 bar chairs for a total of €69.95.
Which bar stool suits my 90 cm high bar table?
Choose a bar stool with a seat height of 60-65 cm. This provides the desired 25-30 cm legroom. The Rib, Rondea, and Wooden Seat are well-suited for this.
Can I also use bar chairs as dining chairs?
That depends on the height. Check if the seat height matches your dining table (normally 75-78 cm). Most bar chairs are too high for a regular dining table.
