Bathroom vanity stools are usually simple seats that allow the user to sit at the bathroom vanity or create a place other than the toilet seat for sitting down while toweling off or getting dressed. They can be simple, backless stools, or they can be more decorative. Usually, the style will be matched to the rest of the bathroom furnishings and fixtures. So, a bathroom with a seaside theme might have a rattan stool, while one that is more art nouveau might be a cushion supported by a gold-colored metal frame. Sturdy and water-resistant are preferred.

Vanity Stool with Classical Motif
Mercer41
What we like: Unique appeal, affordable price point
What we don’t like: Limited fabric option
Not so great for: Modern interiors
Perfect for: Bohemian, eclectic, traditional, and Hollywood glam-inspired interiors
Bring a regal look to your home with this vanity stool. Featuring an oval motif in steel finished in gold, pewter, or white, it adds a glamorous component to your home. This vanity stool has a padded seat covered in cream polyester blend fabric. The curved X-stretcher also brings an attractive eye-catching component to this piece.
Since it only comes in light fabric color, you may want to apply Scotchguard to the material to prevent stains from making it look worn out and dirty. Another option is to replace the fabric cover once the original one starts showing signs of wear and tear. The metal legs will also require felt pads for easier movement, especially on bathroom floor tiles.

What we don’t like: Limited fabric option, has the tendency to collect lint
Not so great for: Ultra-modern spaces, large spaces
Perfect for: Glam-styled room
With its classic buttoned design and rolled back, this vanity stool brings an elegant addition to your makeup station. The foam-padded seat is upholstered in linen and is accented by nailhead trim. Espresso-finished birch solid wood legs complete the classic look of this piece.
