The Knoll Cesca Bar Stool with Upholstered Seat brings Marcel Breuer’s celebrated modernist design to kitchen counters and bar-height dining areas.
Originally conceived in 1928, the Cesca combines the industrial character of tubular steel with the warmth of traditional cane-chair design, creating a distinctive silhouette that has endured for generations.
In this upholstered version, the seat is padded and covered in your choice of fabric or leather, adding softness to the stool’s clean, architectural lines. The cantilevered steel frame gives the design its characteristic floating appearance, while its gently sprung construction provides a degree of flexibility when seated.
Choose the counter-height or bar-height version to suit your space. Produced by Knoll, the Cesca Stool balances comfort and practicality with an unmistakable design heritage. Its restrained form works well alongside contemporary kitchen islands, breakfast bars and informal dining spaces, whether used individually or as part of a matching set.
