Tully Scandinavian Modern Swivel Bar Stool with Low Back

The Tully brings the softness of an upholstered chair to the kitchen island in a clean, streamlined form. Its gently curved seat and low back create a comfortable place to settle in, while the slender metal frame keeps the overall design light and modern.

With its simple lines and quiet sense of warmth, the Tully fits naturally among Scandinavian bar stools made for relaxed, uncluttered interiors.

Modern Scandinavian Style

The Tully combines the soft curves associated with Nordic design with the strength of a steel base. Its restrained silhouette avoids unnecessary ornament, giving it the calm, approachable appearance people often look for in a Scandi stool.

It works especially well with:

• Pale or natural wood cabinetry
• White, cream, gray, and muted green palettes
• Quartz or light stone countertops
• Matte black, brushed metal, or warm brass accents
• Modern, Scandinavian, and transitional kitchens

Among Nordic stools, the Tully has a slightly more contemporary character because of its slim metal frame. It also shares the simple, functional appeal often associated with Swedish-inspired stools.

Upholstered Low-Back Comfort

The curved low back gives you a supportive place to lean without rising too far above the kitchen island. It helps maintain open sightlines across the room while providing noticeably more comfort than a backless design.

For shoppers comparing low back counter stools, the Tully offers a softer, more chair-like sitting experience without the visual weight of a tall upholstered back.

As an upholstered bar stool with a back, it supports both the seat and lower back, making it a comfortable choice for meals, coffee, homework, and casual entertaining.

Smooth Swivel Movement

The swivel seat allows you to turn toward the counter, face the adjoining room, or get up without repeatedly dragging the entire stool across the floor. That flexibility makes the Tully a practical swivel bar stool.

Slim Metal Frame

The upholstered seat rests on a tapered steel base with a square footrest. The narrow legs keep the stool looking airy, while the metal construction provides a strong foundation for everyday use.

This low back metal bar stool feels softer than a fully exposed metal design because the seat and back are both upholstered. 

A Scandinavian Counter Stool for Modern Kitchens

The Tully is a good fit for shoppers seeking Scandinavian counter stools that feel comfortable, but not bulky.

Its low profile keeps the countertop visible, and the armless design makes it easier to arrange several stools along the same island.

Light neutral upholstery creates the most distinctly Nordic look. Muted blue, sage, charcoal, camel, or soft blush can introduce color while maintaining the relaxed simplicity associated with Scandinavian interiors.

Counter or Bar Height

Choose the seat height that fits your surface:

• Counter Height: The 26-inch seat is recommended for kitchen islands and counters approximately 36–37 inches high.
• Bar Height: The 30-inch seat is recommended for counters and home bars approximately 40–42 inches high.

Customize the Tully

The Tully is a polished choice for anyone looking for a modern Scandinavian swivel stool with soft upholstery, a supportive low back, and a slim steel frame.
