J185 Øst Counter Stool
Counter height, two footrest levels, and a back rail that moonlights as a coat hook — sociable Danish engineering.
Stine Weigelt's J185 Øst counter chair for FDB Møbler shares the tapered legs and tangent-circle joinery of her Søs and Anker series, in nature-lacquered oak with an oak veneer seat. It turns easily left and right, keeping you in the kitchen's conversation.

Common Questions
Is the J185 counter or bar height?
Counter — at 35.2 inches overall it is sized for standard 36-inch kitchen counters and islands; the taller J184 Øst serves 40-inch-plus bar tops.
Why two footrest heights?
To support different sitting positions and different sitters — and the high rear rest doubles as a place to hang coats and scarves, a detail carried from restaurant use.
