Rustic Bar StoolsThe English word rustic comes to us from the Latin word rusticus, or rus, meaning country. In the past, rustic bar stools, like rustic furniture, were simple, unsophisticated, and unrefined, reflecting the pace and style of rural life. Not anymore. Say hello to the modern rustic.
Wood choice and finish remain important elements of a rustic bar stool's appeal. Oak and pine are the woods traditionally associated with rustic outdoor furniture, and they are equally popular as rustic barstool woods. Cherry continues to make inroads as a furnishing wood. Cherry rustic bar stools convey a warmth and sophistication more often associated with traditional or transitional furniture styles. Rustic has also begun borrowing lines and forms from across the Atlantic. European-style rustic counter stools are an intriguing choice for kitchen and dining areas or home bars. Keep in mind that rustic bar stools offer a distinctive look, and are best
suited to home decor that feature earthy colors and natural textures and
materials. If that sounds like your lifestyle, you'll enjoy kicking back on one
