Freycinet Barstool Natural

Details at a Glance

The Freycinet Barstool Natural relies on polyester fabric and a powder-coated steel frame to resist moisture, mildew and UV exposure across spring-through-fall outdoor use. The Zuo Modern Freycinet Barstool Natural outdoor bar stool stands 39.8 inches tall and is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. At 16.5 pounds it repositions easily for entertaining or when you need to clear the deck.

How Well Does Polyester Fabric Handle Sun and Rain?

Polyester resists moisture absorption, so the fabric sheds rain and dries quickly after a storm instead of trapping water that breeds mildew. The synthetic fiber also holds its color under direct UV better than cotton or untreated blends, though you'll still see some fade if the stool sits in unshaded sun year after year. The powder coating on the steel frame prevents rust in damp or humid climates, making this stool a practical choice for poolside bars or covered patios where splashes and humidity are constant.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You can leave it out in mild climates, but the fabric will last longer if you store it in a shed or cover it with a fitted tarp once overnight temperatures drop below freezing. Polyester itself won't crack in the cold, but ice and standing water can work their way into seams or stress the frame joints over repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Wipe the frame dry before storing and clean the fabric with mild soap and warm water at the end of the season to remove pollen and debris that hold moisture.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

Position it at a bar-height kitchen island, a poolside counter, or anywhere your table surface sits 40 to 42 inches off the ground -- the 39.8-inch total height gives you the clearance standard bar seating requires. The natural finish pairs easily with the wood tones and neutrals common across our outdoor bar stools and outdoor counter stools collections, and the lightweight frame makes it simple to slide extra seats into place when guests arrive. If you're mixing seat heights around a tiered deck or patio, browse our outdoor accent chairs to layer in lower lounge options.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stay outside all year?

It can remain outdoors in temperate climates, but covering or storing it during prolonged snow and ice extends the life of both the fabric and the frame joints.

Will the polyester fabric fade in direct sun?

Polyester holds color better than natural fibers, but any fabric will show some fade after seasons of unshaded UV exposure -- a covered patio or poolside umbrella helps.

Is the steel frame rust-proof in coastal or salt-air locations?

The powder-coated steel resists rust in humid and salty environments, though rinsing the frame after coastal storms removes salt deposits that can eventually wear through the coating.

What bar-table height does this fit?

The 39.8-inch total height is designed for standard 40- to 42-inch bar tables, providing the 10- to 12-inch clearance most people need.

How do I clean the polyester fabric?

Wipe it down with a solution of mild soap and warm water, rinse with a hose, and let it air-dry -- avoid bleach or harsh solvents that can damage synthetic fibers.

Does the stool ship fully assembled, and is delivery free?

Free curbside delivery is included to the continental USA; any assembly, white-glove placement or setup service is available for an additional fee upon request.
