There are 32 variations of the antique or vintage chair height stool you’re looking for, while we also have 40 modern editions of this piece to choose from as well. You’ve searched high and low for the perfect chair height stool — we have versions that date back to the 19th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 21st Century are available. When you’re browsing for the right chair height stool, those designed in mid-century modern, industrial and modern styles are of considerable interest. A well-made chair height stool has long been a part of the offerings for many furniture designers and manufacturers, but those produced by Pieter Compernol & Stephanie Grusenmeyer, SIMONINI and Jover + Valls are consistently popular. A large chair height stool can prove too imposing for some spaces, so the smaller chair height stool available at 1stDibs — each spanning 1 in width — may make for a better choice.

How Much is a Chair Height Stool?

The average selling price for a chair height stool at 1stDibs is $1,793, while they’re typically $0 on the low end and $122,364 for the highest priced.

Finding the Right Seating for You

With entire areas of our homes reserved for “sitting rooms,” the value of quality antique and vintage seating cannot be overstated.

Fortunately, the design of side chairs, armchairs and other lounge furniture — since what were, quite literally, the early perches of our ancestors — has evolved considerably.

Among the earliest standard seating furniture were stools. Egyptian stools, for example, designed for one person with no seat back, were x-shaped and typically folded to be tucked away. These rudimentary chairs informed the design of Greek and Roman stools, all of which were a long way from Sori Yanagi's Butterfly stool or Alvar Aalto's Stool 60. In the 18th century and earlier, seats with backs and armrests were largely reserved for high nobility.

The seating of today is more inclusive but the style and placement of chairs can still make a statement. Antique desk chairs and armchairs designed in the style of Louis XV, which eventually included painted furniture and were often made of rare woods, feature prominently curved legs as well as Chinese themes and varied ornaments. Much like the thrones of fairy tales and the regency, elegant lounges crafted in the Louis XV style convey wealth and prestige. In the kitchen, the dining chair placed at the head of the table is typically reserved for the head of the household or a revered guest.

Of course, with luxurious vintage or antique furnishings, every chair can seem like the best seat in the house. Whether your preference is stretching out on a plush sofa, such as the Serpentine, designed by Vladimir Kagan, or cozying up in a vintage wingback chair, there is likely to be a comfy classic or contemporary gem for you on 1stDibs.

With respect to the latest obsessions in design, cane seating has been cropping up everywhere, from sleek armchairs to lounge chairs, while bouclé fabric, a staple of modern furniture design, can be seen in mid-century modern, Scandinavian modern and Hollywood Regency furniture styles.

Admirers of the sophisticated craftsmanship and dark woods frequently associated with mid-century modern seating can find timeless furnishings in our expansive collection of lounge chairs, dining chairs and other items — whether they’re vintage editions or alluring official reproductions of iconic designs from the likes of Hans Wegner or from Charles and Ray Eames. Shop our inventory of Egg chairs, designed in 1958 by Arne Jacobsen, the Florence Knoll lounge chair and more.

No matter your style, the collection of unique chairs, sofas and other seating on 1stDibs is surely worthy of a standing ovation.

Questions About Chair Height Stool
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    The height of a bar stool is typically around 28 to 38 inches tall. This is because bar tops are usually around 40 to 42 inches high, so bar stools need to be under this height in order to provide ample leg room.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    A counter height stool is a stool that measures approx. 24 to 27 inches in height, at the seat level. Counter height stools are taller than chairs and are generally designed to go with counter height tables. They can be used in different settings, including counters, dining rooms, coffee tables, bars, restaurants and salons. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage counter height stools.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A standard bar stool will sit around 29 to 32 inches high, and extra-tall bar stools will sit around 33 to 36 inches high. To ensure the best fit for your space, measure the height of the bar or table you want to accent. Shop a wide selection of bar stools on 1stDibs.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024
    The standard height of a chair depends on its type. Generally, experts discuss the seat height of chairs as opposed to their overall height, as the height of the seat determines how well it performs its primary function of providing comfortable seating. The average seat height is 18 to 20 inches, and 16 to 21 inches for office chairs. Most accent chairs have seat heights of around 16 inches. Shop a wide variety of chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024
    A good height for an accent chair is usually around 35 inches overall, with a seat height of 16 inches. However, you should consider the scale of the rest of your furniture when selecting chairs. Generally, the seat on your accent chair should be no more than 4 inches higher or lower than the seats on adjacent pieces like sofas and loveseats. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of accent chairs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024
    The height of a Vitra Standard chair is around 32.25 inches from the bottom of the legs to the top of the chair back. Its seat height is approximately 18.25 inches tall. Jean Prouvé originally designed the chair in 1934. Since then, the dining chair has evolved into one of the most famous classics of the French “constructeur.” The seat and backrest of this understated, iconic piece are available in various types of wood, and the metal frame comes in different colors. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of Vitra Standard chairs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Stools and chairs are both forms of seating, but stools often lack backs and arms. 

  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023
    A good seat height for an accent chair is around 16 inches. However, you should also consider the height of the other seating furniture, like a sofa or a loveseat, in your space. Generally, an accent chair's seat should be no more than 4 inches higher or lower than the seats on adjacent furniture to maintain a balanced look and allow for easy conversation in seating areas. On 1stDibs, explore a wide variety of accent chairs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
    The difference between chairs and stools is generally that the latter are more compact than the former. Traditional stools are backless and armless, unlike chairs, which usually have backs and often feature arms. However, some contemporary dining stools do have backs for added support. The difference between these dining stools and dining chairs is that the stools usually rest on pedestal bases, while chairs have four legs. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of chairs and stools.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Sgabello is the name of the Renaissance stool or simple chair with a wooden back and an octagon-shaped seat. Normally, these wood furnishings showed off ornate carvings. They remained popular throughout Europe through the end of the 17th century. On 1stDibs, find a variety of sgabello chairs.
