Kano Teak Counter Stool

Q: What counter or bar height does the Kano Backless Bar Stool suit?
A: The Kano has an 81cm seat height, which is designed to pair with true bar counters typically sitting at 105cm to 110cm in surface height (leaving the standard 25 to 30cm gap between seat and counter for comfortable seated posture). This makes the Kano well-suited to home bars, pub-style installations and taller kitchen counter surfaces. For standard 90cm kitchen counters or breakfast bars, consider a shorter counter stool at around 65cm seat height instead. Please measure your counter's surface height before ordering to confirm the Kano's proportions work for your space.

Q: Can I order the Kano Backless Bar Stool as a matched set?
A: Yes. With 19 currently in stock, the Kano is exceptionally well-suited to matched bar or entertainment area set orders of 2, 3, 4 or even 6 stools. When ordering multiple stools, please note that natural teak grain variation means each seat carries its own distinct grain pattern (part of the appeal of solid teak), while the minimalist matte midnight black metal frames and ergonomic seat silhouette remain visually consistent across the set. The compact 40 x 35cm footprint allows comfortable spacing along most bar counter layouts.

Q: What is the Kano Backless Bar Stool made from and why is each piece unique?
A: The Kano combines two premium materials in considered architectural balance. The seat is crafted from solid teak wood, chosen for its density, natural oil content and rich multi-tonal character with honey-gold and deep amber hues. The frame is built from slender architectural metal finished in matte midnight black, providing structural stability with a sharp, clean contrast to the natural wood. Because teak is an organic material and each seat is hand-finished with an ergonomic sculpted curve, unique grain patterns, knots, tonal shifts and slight variation in the curve mean every Kano stool is a distinct piece of functional art.

Q: What warranty and delivery does the Kano Backless Bar Stool come with?
A: The solid teak seat is covered under the standard 3-year furniture warranty applicable to Sotran solid wooden furniture, and the metal frame elements are covered under the standard chair warranty (full terms available on our Furniture Warranty and Couches & Occasional Chairs Warranty pages). Delivery is nationwide across South Africa with an estimated window of 4 to 10 business days. The stool arrives fully assembled with no assembly required, and given its compact size, standard delivery applies for most locations. Collection is also available from our Boksburg HQ, Fourways (Design Quarter) and Somerset West stores.
