Outdoor Bar Stools

If you enjoy entertaining outside during the summer months, then it is much more convenient to have purpose made outdoor bar stools in place in your leisure area than to have to move out your inside seats whenever you have company.  Outdoor bar stools are specifically constructed to be robust and stand up to exposure to the elements, although it’s a good idea to move them inside for storage during the winter season to reduce wear and tear. 

Backyard or patio bar stools are great for providing comfortable seating at an outdoor party or barbeque, at an outside bar area or next to the pool.  They are made from a variety of durable weather-resistant materials.  Rust-proof metal bar stools made from aluminum are low maintenance and light enough to move around to accommodate guests.  Wrought iron is heavier but more resilient in windier sites and looks very ornate and fashionable.  Wood bar stools, such as those made from teak or cedar, are popular in a garden setting for a traditional or natural look, but must be finished with a suitable treatment to protect them from the weather.  Rattan and wicker are other popular choices for their classic good looks and character.

As with their indoor counterparts, outdoor bar stools are available in a range of different styles, to fit in with your outdoor decorating theme.  Folding bar stools have a handy design as they can easily be put away and stored after use.  Chair style stools with backs and arm rests, including Adirondack styles, are a favorite choice for al fresco dining areas.  Backless contemporary bar stools with swivel seats look very much at home in a modern outdoor bar area.  Whatever your personal style, outdoor bar stools can add to the ambiance of your backyard or patio and are excellent items of furniture for decorating any exterior leisure space.
