Tyler Farmhouse Backless Saddle Bar Stool with Danish Cord Seat

The Tyler pairs a handwoven Danish cord seat with a sturdy steel frame, creating a modern farmhouse bar stool with natural warmth and a clean, uncomplicated shape.

Its compact saddle seat and backless profile make it especially useful in smaller kitchens, breakfast areas, and islands positioned near a walkway. The result is a distinctive woven-seat bar stool that feels rustic, modern, and lightly Scandinavian.

Handwoven Danish Cord Seat

The Tyler’s seat is woven by hand from durable Danish cord. The visible strands create rich texture while giving the stool a softer, more natural appearance than an all-metal design.

Small variations in the cord and weaving are part of the material’s character, so every seat may look slightly different. This natural quality works beautifully in modern farmhouse, Scandinavian, coastal, and organic contemporary kitchens.

Contoured Saddle Shape

Its raised sides help define your sitting position while giving the Tyler more character than a flat rectangular seat.

For shoppers comparing saddle bar stools, the woven surface provides a different sitting experience from upholstered, wood, or vinyl versions. The cord has some natural give, but it still offers a firmer and more structured feel than a thick cushion.

Backless and Easy to Store

As a backless bar stool, the Tyler can slide beneath many kitchen islands and counters when it is not in use. This keeps the countertop visible and helps preserve walking space around the island.

Its simple profile is especially useful for:

• Smaller kitchens and breakfast bars
• Islands located near a walkway
• Rooms where open sightlines matter
• Shoppers comparing backless counter stools
• Spaces where several stools need to fit along one counter

Because this is a non-swivel bar stool, it remains securely facing the island and has no moving parts beneath the seat.

Compact, Shallow Seat

The Tyler measures approximately 18⅞ inches wide, giving it a comfortable amount of side-to-side room.

Its 13-inch seat depth is noticeably shallower than many standard stools. That compact measurement makes it a useful shallow-depth bar stool for kitchens with limited clearance behind the seating area.

It may be a particularly good fit for:

• Petite sitters
• Shorter periods of everyday seating
• Small apartments and compact kitchens
• Islands near walls, cabinets, or furniture
• Narrow walkways where deeper stools would project too far

Since the seat is shallow, it will not provide as much thigh support as a deeper stool. It is best for casual meals, coffee, and shorter visits rather than long, leisurely dinners.

Rectangular Seat, Slim Footprint

Tyler has an elongated rectangular seat. This gives the rectangular bar stool a more tailored appearance and creates a clear front-facing position at the island.

The compact shape also helps several stools line up neatly without making the seating area feel crowded.

Caring for Danish Cord

The cord is treated with wax to provide some resistance to light spills. Highly pigmented foods and beverages may still stain the natural fibers, so spills should be addressed promptly.

For routine cleaning:

• Gently dab the area with a damp cloth
• Use a mild, neutral soap solution when needed
• Avoid soaking the cord
• Do not scrub or rub aggressively

This careful approach helps protect the weave and preserve its natural texture.

Modern Farmhouse with Scandinavian Character

The Tyler works especially well in a farmhouse kitchen because of its saddle-shaped seat, straightforward frame, and warm woven texture. At the same time, the Danish cord gives it a lighter Scandinavian influence that keeps it from appearing overly rustic.

Pair it with:

• Light oak or walnut cabinetry
• White or cream kitchens
• Natural stone countertops
• Black or bronze hardware
• Organic textures and warm neutrals
• Modern farmhouse or Scandinavian interiors

A black or dark brown frame creates the strongest farmhouse look. Soft white, taupe, champagne, or silver can make the design feel lighter and more contemporary.

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.

At Barstool Comforts, the Tyler is a distinctive option for shoppers looking for backless counter-height stools with a natural woven seat instead of conventional upholstery.

Select Your Metal Finish

Personalize the Tyler by choosing the metal finish that best suits your kitchen. Available options range from classic black and rich bronze to soft white, silver, taupe, and warm champagne tones.

The Tyler brings together the space-saving convenience of bar stools with no back, the recognizable comfort of a saddle seat, and the natural texture of handwoven Danish cord.
