Provence Counter Stool

The Provence Counter Stool carries the relaxed charm of old European kitchens and country homes, combining natural materials with traditional craftsmanship in a way that feels quietly familiar from the first glance. Crafted from old oak with a woven rattan seat and metal cross-back detailing, it brings warmth, texture, and character to kitchen islands and gathering spaces where people naturally linger. The gently curved timber frame and traditional bentwood-inspired construction create a stool that feels collected rather than manufactured — built for everyday living and designed to age gracefully with time.

With its balanced proportions and natural materials, Provence sits comfortably within farmhouse interiors, lodge-inspired homes, and kitchens where timber, texture, and authenticity matter.

Frequent Queries

Will the oak timber and rattan look exactly like the photos?
No. Old oak and natural rattan vary in grain, texture, tone, markings, and colour. These variations are expected and part of what gives each stool its individual character.

Is the 65cm seat height suitable for my kitchen island?
A 65cm seat height is typically suited to standard NZ counter heights around 90–95cm. We recommend measuring your bench height before ordering.

Is woven rattan suitable for everyday use?
Yes. Woven rattan has been used in furniture for generations and is well suited to everyday use when treated with normal care and not exposed to excessive moisture.
