Sony Velvet Bar Stools: Backrest and Armrests, 68cm Seat, 6.9kg Each, Orange or Dark Teal
By Furniture1001 min read
The Sony is the velvet stool with arms: a backrest and armrests on black metal legs, in a burnt orange or a deep teal, with a 68cm seat that puts it at a counter. It is the stool for an island where people stay, and the pair weighs under 14kg.
What it is
A set of two velvet bar stools with a backrest and armrests on black metal legs. The stated figures:
| Width | 49cm |
| Depth | 50.5cm |
| Height | 96cm |
| Seat height | 68cm |
| Stool weight | 6.9kg each |
The page describes them as easy to clean and lists kitchens, coffee houses and restaurants.
Who it suits
A 90cm to 95cm island where the stools are furniture rather than perches. The armrests are the point, and the thing to measure: at 49cm wide, allow the space along the counter, and check the arms clear the underside of the worktop so the stools tuck in.
Orange or dark teal
Orange is a burnt tone, not a bright one, and it suits oak, cream and white kitchens. Dark teal is jewel-like and suits brass, dark wood and navy. Both sit on black legs.
Living with it
Vacuum the velvet with a soft brush in the direction of the pile; blot spills.

Frequently asked questions
What is the seat height of the Sony?
The product page states 68cm from floor to seat. That is counter height, for a worktop of around 90cm to 95cm.
How big are they?
Stated as 49cm wide, 50.5cm deep and 96cm high, and 6.9kg per stool. The armrests are what make it 49cm wide, so allow that along the counter.
Are the arms useful on a bar stool?
For a long sit, yes. Arms turn a stool into a chair at counter height, which is the difference between breakfast and a whole evening at the island. Check they clear the underside of your worktop.
Do they come as a pair?
Yes, a set of two in each colour.
Orange or dark teal?
Orange is a warm burnt tone that suits oak, cream and white. Dark teal is deep and jewel-like and suits brass, dark wood and navy. Legs are black on both.
