Bar Stools with Arms

Bar stools with backs and arms for longer sits

Bar stools with backs and arms hold you the way a dining chair does, which is why they work best where people linger. Every stool here has a back as well as arms. The boucle counter stools wrap a low curved back into rounded open arms, and the natural rattan bar stool has a lattice back with arms that slope down to meet the seat.

Swivel bar stools with arms

Swivel bar stools with arms turn a full 360 degrees, so you can face the counter or the room without dragging the stool. The woven rattan pairs swivel on a bronze-toned pedestal with a footrest ring, and the outdoor aluminum pair swivels on a bearing base.

Counter height bar stools with arms and bar height

Counter height bar stools with arms sit about 26 inches high for a 36 inch counter, which is where the boucle pair lands. The woven rattan pairs adjust on a gas lift from about 25.6 to 34 inches, so they cover both counter and bar. The natural rattan stool seats you around 29 to 30 inches for a 40 to 42 inch counter. Arms add width, so check the clearance between stools and allow about 26 inches of counter per seat.

Bar stool chairs with arms: materials and care

Bar stool chairs with arms come in four builds here. Woven PE rattan over metal with a linen cushion, boucle over an iron frame with brushed gold caps, natural hand-woven rattan for indoor use, and powder-coated aluminum with a Sunbrella cushion for outdoors. Vacuum boucle and linen, dust rattan with a soft brush, and stand the outdoor cushions on edge to dry after rain.
