In older times there was a difference between bar chairs and bar stools. The stools were very simple in their construction and was projected to be seated in front of bar counter merely. The only thing considered in their making was their height. The height of bar stools was maintained as per the height of bar counter. There was no element of comfort and luxury however material was considered in order to create a class. Later on, innovations took birth with the interference of designers in the field of commercial furniture. The bar stools were provided with arms and back to make them comfortable but they were still far away from chairs in their shape.
During the last decade, innovative designing appeared in the bar stools and they started looking like chairs as well. These chairs like stools were named bar chairs and got popularity within a short period of time. These are not only comfortable but also stylish and classy in their appearance. These not only serve the function of stools but can be used for the sake of a comfortable seat. Restaurants having bars in their premises are widely using this genre of bar chairs.
