Velvet Upholstered Bar Stool

Velvet upholstery is a luxurious and highly sought-after choice for bar stools due to its exceptional tactile qualities and elegant visual appeal. Our velvet is made from a carefully curated blend of polyester and cotton fibres, and the manufacturing process involves weaving these fibres into a dense pile fabric.

What sets our velvet apart is the specific method of weaving we use which results in its hallmark soft and plush texture. This process creates a series of closely spaced, evenly cut loops on the fabric's surface, which we then shear to create a smooth, dense pile. The loops and their uniform distribution are key to velvet's characteristic feel and shimmering appearance. 

The result is a fabric that exudes opulence and sophistication, making it a popular upholstery choice for those looking to infuse a touch of luxury into their homes. Our velvet upholstery undergoes rigorous testing to ensure its durability, preventing issues like bobbling or fraying over time, making it a reliable choice for long-lasting bar stool upholstery.

Key Benefits

• Enhanced Stain Resistance: The fabric undergoes treatments to make it more resistant to stains, making it a practical choice for bar stools. Minor accidental spills are easier to clean, preventing long-term damage and maintaining the stools' aesthetic appeal.
• High Abrasion Resistance: Our polyester velvet boasts a Martindale rub count around 50,000, exceeding industry standards for heavy-duty use. This translates to exceptional resistance to pilling, fraying and tearing, making it ideal for high-traffic areas and frequent use.
• Soft & Plush Texture: The densely woven pile creates a luxuriously soft and inviting surface, providing exceptional comfort while seated. This is further enhanced by the inherent suppleness of polyester fibres, which drape and conform to the body for added comfort.
• Breathable Fabric: Despite its dense pile, our polyester velvet exhibits good breathability, allowing air to circulate and preventing excessive heat build-up, especially during warmer months. This contributes to a more comfortable seating experience.
• Low Maintenance: The smooth, non-porous surface of polyester velvet resists dust and dirt accumulation, making it easy to maintain. Regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment is sufficient for removing dust and debris.
• Fire Retardancy: Our polyester velvet fabric is fire-resistance tested, complying with the UK fire safety standards for your peace of mind.
• Gold-Tipped Metal Legs: Elevate your space with these bar stools featuring black metal legs gracefully tipped in regal gold. The chic harmony of contrasting colours adds a touch of glamour, making these stools a standout addition to your stylish dining ensemble.

Foam Cushioning

These bar stools are fitted with thoughtfully crafted foam cushioning, made from high-quality polyurethane foam. The manufacturing process is extensive, starting with the precise combination of chemical ingredients like polyols and isocyanates. This controlled reaction produces a foam-like material. By introducing gas, we expand this mixture, resulting in lightweight yet supportive, body-conforming foam. 

The foam is then cut and shaped to fit the stool's design. To ensure durability, we subject the foam to extensive testing, including compression and abrasion tests. These tests simulate the wear and tear the foam might experience during everyday use, such as people sitting and getting down from the stool.

Matte Black Powder Coated Metal Legs

Our matte black powder coated metal legs undergo a fascinating transformation, marrying industrial strength with sophisticated aesthetics. The journey begins with choosing the right metal - steel is a popular choice due to its strength & durability. Using techniques like laser cutting, CNC machining, or bending, we transform the metal into the desired frame shape with high accuracy. It then undergoes degreasing to get rid of any surface contaminants for optimal adhesion of the coating. 

The heart of the process lies in the electrostatic powder coating - dry, finely ground particles of paint resins & hardeners, are sprayed onto the charged metal frame. The coated frame is then baked at 350°C, followed by slow cooling, to melt and solidify the powder into a durable finish that resists corrosion and daily wear & tear.

Care guide

• General Cleaning: Avoid using harsh chemicals or detergents, as they can damage the fabric and cause fading. Spot cleaning is recommended for most stains. Avoid overall washing, as it can shrink or distort the fabric.
• Spot Cleaning: Address spills promptly by blotting the affected area with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as it can push the spill deeper into the fabric. For liquid spills, use a paper towel to soak up as much as possible before blotting.
• Gentle touch: Avoid using harsh brushes or abrasive cleaning tools, as they can damage the delicate fibres. 
• Use Mild Cleaning Agents: Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or strong cleaning agents on velvet bar stools to prevent fabric damage, colour fading, and texture alteration. Opt for gentle, water-based cleaning solutions and always test in a small, inconspicuous area before application to ensure compatibility.
• Occasional Vacuuming: Vacuum your velvet stools occasionally to help remove deeper dirt, dust mites and pet hair that can accumulate in the fabric. Use the lowest suction setting on your vacuum cleaner & always vacuum in the direction of the nap to avoid damaging the fibres and pay extra attention to the seams and crevices where dirt can accumulate.

Buying Guide

• Counter Height: Before making your decision, make sure to measure the distance from the floor to the underside of your countertop or bar to find out the best seat height for your bar stools. As a general rule, a gap of around 25cm to 30cm is suitable. This allows people to sit comfortably with ample legroom and promotes ergonomic seating at your countertop or bar. Consider an adjustable bar stool, which allows for seamless height adjustment, ensuring comfortable seating for everyone.
• Backrest and Armrests: Decide if you prefer the support of a backrest or the freedom of movement offered by backless stools. Armrests can add comfort for prolonged sitting, but may not be suitable for tight spaces.
• Swivel vs. Stationary: When choosing between swivel and stationary stools, consider the dynamics of your space and the desired style. Swivel stools are designed with a rotating seat, providing increased mobility and flexibility. This is particularly beneficial in areas where people frequently move or need to reach different directions, such as in kitchen spaces or at a bar. On the other hand, stationary stools offer a more traditional and grounded aesthetic, ideal for creating a classic and stable seating arrangement. 
• Spacing: Ensure there is enough space between stools for comfortable seating. Aim for about 15cm of space between each stool. Determine the number of stools needed based on the length of your counter or bar and consider the available space.
