About Leather-Look and PU Bar Stools

Understand what PU means

PU leather is synthetic leather-look upholstery, rather than genuine leather. Do not assume a product is genuine leather from a collection name or a brown finish. Read the selected listing’s material field and check any wording that appears inconsistent before ordering.

Compare the frame and sitting position

The Cherry black stool lists a PU seat, steel base and a 64–85cm seat-height range. Mika’s black set of four lists a PU padded seat and plywood construction. These are different designs; upholstery alone does not tell you whether a stool adjusts, swivels or has a fixed height.

Choose colour and texture separately

For warmer colours, compare chocolate and taupe stools, checking the material on each listing. If you prefer a woven upholstery texture, explore fabric bar stools. Use the finish of the frame and footrest to connect the seat with the room.

Follow the upholstery’s own care guidance

Use the supplied cleaning instructions for the chosen material. Do not apply a treatment intended for genuine leather to PU without confirmation that it is suitable. Review the seat, frame and assembly details together before choosing your pack.

Questions about leather-look and pu bar stools

Is every stool here genuine leather?

No. PU is a synthetic material, and the listed composition should guide your choice. Genuine leather should only be assumed when the exact product specification explicitly identifies it.

Does brown upholstery always mean leather-look material?

No. Brown describes a colour. Confirm whether the seat uses fabric, PU or another material from the individual product details.
