Seat upholstery. The Polo seat is offered in PPM, a polyurethane performance leather, and in Camira Era, a woven contract fabric. Screens show color slightly differently than real life.

Leg finishes

The Polo Wood stool raises the Polo seat, with its taller upholstered back, to counter or bar height on four solid wood legs joined by a footrest. The full back gives more support than a bucket-seat stool, which makes it a comfortable pick for long dinners at a kitchen island or a restaurant counter. Choose beech in walnut or wenge finish, black sandblasted ash with a brass footrest, or solid American walnut. Inside the cover, a steel seat frame with S-shaped springs is molded in polyurethane foam, and the slipcover comes off by its Velcro fastening.

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. Dust the wood with a dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Wood, leather and fabric vary naturally in grain and shade from piece to piece.
