Ivory Wei Barstool

A curved wooden back cups an ivory seat like a pair of hands.

The Wei Barstool is contemporary, from the Primitive Collection, in ivory and leather. Barstools with a low wraparound back owe much to mid-century and Art Deco seating, which favored comfort without fuss. Here a sweeping shell of dark figured wood wraps around a plump ivory leather seat. Four tapered dark legs splay slightly and are joined by curved stretchers, with a slim metal footrest across the front. It is 15 inches long, 19 deep and 39 high.

Sits upright, but not too upright.
