Backless Counter Stool in Leather and Solid Walnut

Most counter stools with backs crowd the kitchen and block the view across an island. This one leaves the sightlines alone. The backless shape lets you pull it up from any direction, and the low profile keeps the space feeling open even when all the seats are out. Solid walnut and top-grain leather mean it looks deliberate rather than temporary, and the stretcher footrests land where your feet naturally fall instead of forcing an awkward angle. If your kitchen favors clean lines and you don't need a backrest for every seat, the simplicity here is the whole point.

Good gift when

  • Kitchens with waterfall-edge islands or open floor plans
  • People who prefer uncluttered sightlines over tall backs
  • Homes where solid wood and leather justify the investment
  • Anyone who wants seating ready to use without assembly

Skip it if You need back support for long sits—this stool's backless profile works for quick meals and casual perching, not for settling in with a laptop for hours.

The maker

Poly & Bark builds furniture that leans on mid-century forms without copying museum pieces outright. The Notello stool belongs to a collection that pairs solid American hardwoods with upholstery chosen for everyday durability rather than showroom softness. The brand sources top-grain leather—meaning the hide's natural surface stays intact—and machines the walnut frames from lumber milled in the United States. Each stool ships assembled because the joinery and finish work happen in the factory, not your kitchen.

The details

This counter stool skips the backrest and focuses on what makes the perch comfortable: a cushioned seat wrapped in top-grain leather, a footrest bar where your feet will actually land, and solid American black walnut legs that hold 250 pounds without wobbling.

The backless silhouette keeps sightlines open across an island or bar, and the compact footprint—17.5 inches square, just under 30 inches tall—tucks beneath counters when you want the floor to feel uncluttered. High-resilience foam beneath the leather keeps the seat supportive during a long conversation, and the stretchers between the legs double as footrests so you don't dangle.

Natural walnut means each frame carries its own grain pattern and color variation. The wood is solid, not veneered, and the construction uses engineered hardwood reinforcement where it counts. Steel foot glides protect floors from scratches when you slide the stool in or out.

Because the seat has no back, you can pull it up from any angle—helpful in a kitchen where traffic moves in all directions. The leather surface wipes clean, and the whole stool arrives assembled, ready to use the day it shows up.

Questions

Does this stool need assembly?
No. It arrives fully assembled and ready to use right out of the box.
How tall is the seat from the floor?
The seat sits 26 inches high, which is standard counter height for pairing with kitchen islands or bars between 34 and 36 inches tall.
Will the wood color match other walnut furniture?
Natural walnut varies in color and grain from piece to piece, so exact matches are unlikely. Expect warm brown tones with darker streaking, but individual pieces will differ.
Can I use this stool outdoors?
No. The leather upholstery and wood frame are intended for indoor use only. Outdoor exposure will damage both materials.
How do I clean the leather seat?
Wipe the top-grain leather with a damp cloth for everyday spills. Avoid harsh cleaners or soaking the material, and condition the leather periodically to keep it supple.
