Bar stools come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, styles and seat heights. From contemporary to rustic, metal to bamboo, leather to bare wood, you've got a lot of features to choose from in your quest to find the perfect stool.
There has been evidence of stools throughout history, with the earliest surviving pieces dating back to the days of the Egyptian Old Kingdom (circa 2680 B.C.). They demonstrate basic woodworking skill, but as time progresses, so does the capacity for man to not only improve upon the most minimal of designs, but elaborate; sophisticated joints, veneering, the use of metals and precious stones and cushioning have changed the look and feel of stools a great deal since their first inception.
