Vintage Chrome Diner Bar Stool with Round Vinyl Seat – Industrial Mid-Century

Description :
This vintage chrome bar stool features a classic diner-style tubular metal frame with circular footrest rings and a round upholstered seat. The stool retains its original brown vinyl covering, which shows significant wear, cracking, and tearing, with exposed padding visible—clear evidence of age and long-term use. The chrome-plated steel base exhibits surface wear, oxidation, and patina consistent with mid-20th-century commercial furniture commonly found in diners, soda fountains, and workshops. Structurally solid, this piece is ideal for restoration, reupholstery, or use as-is for an authentic industrial aesthetic.
