Seat upholstery. The Falcon seat comes in five PPM-S colors (a silicone-finish performance leatherette) or two Camira Blazer wool fabrics. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Base finishes

For long sessions at a bar or work counter, the Falcon Piston with a full footrest ring gives your feet support all the way around, wherever you turn the swivel seat. A gas lift sets the seat anywhere from 21 to 31 in, and the 17.7 in round base keeps the stool steady without legs to catch chair feet or vacuum cleaners. Choose polished stainless for a classic diner shine, brushed stainless to hide fingerprints, or black for a quieter Industrial look. The upholstered Falcon shell wraps the lower back for support without the bulk of a full-height back.

Planning notes

• Seat height adjusts from 21 to 31 in; set it for 35 in counters or 42 in bar tops.
• Allow at least 24 in per stool so the footrest rings do not touch when seats turn.
• Brushed stainless shows the fewest fingerprints in busy commercial settings.
• The round base is 17.7 in across; check the space under the counter overhang.
• Shipping: in-stock stools ship in 3 to 5 business days. If your seat and base combination is out of stock or on its way to our warehouse, please allow 10 to 15 weeks for it to ship.

Who it is not for

• Tight spaces where a 17.7 in base will not fit: see Falcon Wire
• Rooms that want wood: see Falcon Baba or Falcon PR-Wood
• Outdoor use

Care

Wipe faux leather and PPM with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, then dry. Vacuum fabric seats regularly and blot spills right away. Wipe the metal base with a soft, dry cloth; skip abrasive pads and harsh cleaners, which dull plated and powder-coated finishes. Leather and fabric vary slightly in shade from batch to batch.

The Falcon collection is designed by the sohoConcept design team, a contract and residential seating maker.
