Pedrali Gliss Bar Stool

The Pedrali Gliss bar stool is an adjustable-height, swivel stool for kitchen counters and bars, made in Italy by Pedrali and designed by Dondoli and Pocci. A one-piece acrylic shell sits on a chromed central stem, so the stool reads as a single clean form from every angle.

Design and construction

The seat shell is acrylic, described by the factory as resistant and flexible. That flex gives the seat some give under the sitter without any added upholstery. Below it, a chromed central stem and matching chromed base carry the shell, and a gas-lift mechanism housed inside the stem handles the height adjustment, so there are no exposed levers or springs breaking up the line.

Because the shell and stem are the whole design, the Gliss suits modern kitchens, island seating, and home bars where you want a lightweight visual presence. Browse more designs in our Pedrali stools collection or the wider range of contemporary and modern stools.

FAQ

How does the height adjustment on the Pedrali Gliss 970 work?

The gas-lift mechanism sits inside the chromed central stem, which keeps the adjustment out of sight. The stool is also categorized as a swivel stool, so it turns as well as raises and lowers, which helps at an island or a bar where you step in and out often.

Is there a fixed-height version of the Gliss?

Yes. Pedrali also makes a fixed Gliss with a sled-style base instead of the central stem. If you want a set height rather than a gas-lift stool, look through the Pedrali stools collection for that version.

Is the Gliss suited to kitchen use?

It is categorized as kitchen furniture and as a plastic stool, and its acrylic shell and chromed stem make it a fit for counter and island seating. The adjustable range lets one stool work across different surface heights.
