Meru Counter Stool - Teak
Featuring sculptural lines with sleek curves, these counter stools double as modern works of art. Handcrafted from rich, durable teak wood, they instantly add a layer of warmth and texture to your bar or kitchen.
Handcrafted by master artisans in Jepara, Indonesia, each stool takes about 18 days to complete, all made in a fair trade environment with ethically-harvested teak. Unrivaled in their woodworking expertise, this group artfully constructs these stools with carefully placed joints, only using screws to secure the seat to the base.
As a heads up, these are counter stools, not taller bar-height stools. They are designed to fit most residential counter heights.
NOTE: Due to the size of this item, returns for a refund require a $65 total fee. Returns for store credit are always free.

very stylish
never felt more like an adult than having a counter with these stools

Difficult customer service
Ordered 4, 1 was shipped broken. Although I was credited for the broken stool, I was told it was sold out and that Citizenry could not send a replacement. Both my designer and I made several phone calls trying to find out when another stool would be available. A week later, I found on my own that the stool was back in stock. I contacted customer service to see if I could get a replacement, and was told it was “an online glitch” and that the stool was still sold out. I decided to chance it, and ordered the stool and it showed up. Very odd, and I will definitely think twice about ordering again.
The Citizenry
Hi Mari, First, thank you for taking the time to write this honest note. We wouldn’t know when we’ve missed the mark without feedback like yours. We completely understand your frustration — both from a product perspective and the subsequent communication. This is not the level of service we strive to provide in any way, and we’re truly sorry that this has been your experience. We’re so sorry that this piece arrived in less-than-acceptable condition. That’s not the experience we strive to create, and we've worked with our team and artisans to correct this going forward. Because you’re absolutely right — when one of our pieces arrives it should be nothing short of perfection. We spoke with our Client Experience Team and are happy to hear that we were able to remedy this for you. We also sincerely apologize for any confusion surrounding the ordering of these beauties during this ordeal. If there is anything else we can do at all, please do not hesitate to reach out. We certainly hope we can make it up to you in the future. Sincerely, The Citizenry Team

Stylish, well-made
It came wrapped so well that it took me fifteen minutes to unwrap each one. Beautifully made

Meru COunter Stool
I bought two--- I love them. They are beautifully made and finished, and exactly what I needed and wanted. Comfortable, handsome, and at the same time fit neatly under the counter until needed, so they do not take up a huge amount of space. Highly recommended.

Who thought a stool could be magnificent?
The stool looks like major and extraordinarily fine piece of furniture. It is beautifully made and solid. I chose it because it appeared to be a good match for six Baker dining chairs I just bought, and it compares well in looks and quality with the fabulous mid-century Asian chairs that were far more costly. Totally great!

Stylish, quality works of art for your kitchen
I absolutely love the way these counter stools instantly make my kitchen so stylish. They are little works of art, the quality and coloring of the teak is top notch, the design is so unique. One of the best items I’ve bought off Citizenry...and I love everything I’ve purchased from them!
