Diner Stools
Emily is a young, talented designer, whose professional interests gravitate towards kitchen and dining spaces. She prides herself on her attention to detail, obsession with functionality, and appreciation for craftsmanship.
From the ice cream shops of the 50s to the mom-and-pop diners of today, diner bar stools are iconic, and despite the progress of time, haven’t changed much. They are still very comfy, still swivel, and still can have logos from companies like COKE on them. They are well made, sturdy, and best if bought in quantity. If you are a lover of the old malt shops or a 5-and-dime, see collection for what we have in diner bar stools.

Slogan Bar Stool
JS Products
The slogan featured on the seat of this stool gives it a classic Americana look and feel, as does the bright red seat. It has a sturdy steel base with a matte black finish and a rip-resistant vinyl seat.
Designer Advice:
This stool is a great choice for a retro-style barber shop, especially because the plush seat will be comfortable when sitting for long periods of time. The black and red color scheme will also look great with brick walls. However, the fixed height could be an issue if you like to sit at different heights depending on the style you’re doing.
Classic Diner Bar Stool
Torin
This stool has a matte black seat with swivel function and chrome-plated silver legs. The legs have anti-slip protective caps on that will also prevent any floor scratching. It is made using heavy-duty steel for added durability.
