Brixton Counter Stools: Distressed PU Leather, Matte Black Frame, 66cm Seat, 250lb, Cognac or Taupe

By Furniture1002 min read

Brixton cognac brown PU leather counter stool with a curved backrest on a matte black metal frame

The Brixton is the counter stool for a kitchen with black in it: softly distressed PU leather on a sculptural matte-black metal frame, a curved backrest, and an integrated footrest that also braces the frame. A 66cm seat puts it at an island, and it comes as a pair rated to 250 pounds.

What it is

A set of two counter stools with a generously padded seat of high-density foam under distressed PU leather, a supportive curved backrest, and a matte-black metal frame with an integrated footrest that the product page says reinforces the structure. The stated figures:

Height89cm
Width44.5cm
Depth52cm
Seat height66cm
Maximum load250lb (about 113kg)

The page pitches it for modern kitchens, home bars and hospitality spaces.

The two colours

Both product titles begin with "taupe", which is a label the supplier attached rather than a description. In the room, one is a cognac brown, a warm tan; the other is a taupe khaki, a greige. The cognac reads as leather from across the room and suits wood and brass; the khaki is quieter and suits a grey or white kitchen.

Who it suits

A 90cm island in a kitchen with black taps, handles or a dark worktop. The distressed finish means marks read as character. The frame is the reason it works in a busy kitchen.

Brixton or Ludlow

Both are cognac counter stools on matte-black frames. The Ludlow has a barrel back that wraps round into arms; the Brixton has a curved open backrest. Wraparound for a long sit, open for tucking under.

Living with it

A damp cloth. Keep the footrest bolts tight.

Frequently asked questions

What is the seat height of the Brixton?

The product page states 66cm, which is counter height for a worktop of around 90cm. It is a counter stool, not a bar stool, and will sit low at a 105cm bar.

How big is it?

Stated as 89cm high, 44.5cm wide and 52cm deep, with a 250 pound load capacity, roughly 113kg.

What are the two colours, really?

Both product titles begin with taupe, which is a supplier label rather than the colour. One is a cognac brown, a warm tan; the other is a greige khaki. The site shows them as cognac and taupe, and the swatches on the product page are sampled from the real seats.

Is the leather real?

No. It is PU leather with a softly distressed, retro finish. It wipes clean and we say PU or leather-look rather than leather.

Do they come as a pair?

Yes, a set of two in each colour.
