Dante Barstool

Solid ash barstool by B&T Design

The Dante Barstool by B&T Design is a solid ash-wood stool for workplace cafés, shared dining areas and high tables. Designed by B&T Design Studio in 2020, it has a curved back and a shaped wooden frame. A metal support sits beneath the seat. The maker describes Dante as an indoor range that includes both a chair and a barstool.

The barstool comes in two seat heights. The kitchen-height version has a 64 cm seat and is 92 cm high overall. The bar-height version has a 74 cm seat and is 102 cm high overall. Check the table or counter height before choosing. The curved back is part of the design in both heights.

Choose a plain wooden seat, an upholstered seat, or upholstery on both the seat and inner back. Fabric, natural leather and artificial leather are listed among the upholstery choices. The maker also lists a range of finishes for the ash frame. These are choices for the specification, not features included on every stool. The chair in the same series offers a way to use the same design at standard dining height.

For a workplace project, share the counter heights, room plan, quantity, upholstery and wood finish with one of our experienced project consultants. They can help check the selected version against the space and other seating.

How to specify the Dante Barstool

Set the seating use

Plan where Dante will sit, such as a workplace café counter or a high table. The barstool is part of an indoor chair and stool range, so the wider seating plan may include both heights.

Choose the seat height

Measure the counter or table before choosing the 64 cm kitchen-height seat or the 74 cm bar-height seat. Check space for legs and movement around the stools.

Pick the upholstery

Choose a plain wooden seat, an upholstered seat, or an upholstered seat and inner back. Fabric, natural leather and artificial leather are listed choices. Check the exact finish for the chosen version.

Agree the wood finish

The maker lists several finishes for the ash frame. Select a sample that works with the surrounding tables and finishes rather than assuming a finish from a photograph.

Check the floor plan

Allow enough space to move behind seated people and to reach adjacent furniture. Confirm the quantity and layout against a floor plan before deciding on the order.

Share the brief

Send the counter height, layout, number of stools, wood finish and upholstery choice to one of our experienced project consultants. They can check the proposed combination for your scheme.

American Tech Company

The supplied Dante brief identifies the American Tech Company project. Its public project page describes the wider office scheme, but does not name the stool or state which Dante height or finish was used. Confirm the project specification rather than treating the pictured scheme as a finish guide.
