The Gideon Outdoor Counter Stool from Alder & Ore takes its cues from the classic Parisian bistro, with a rounded woven back and a gently arched frame that gives it an immediately recognizable character. The aluminum frame is finished to replicate the look of real bamboo, lending a warmth that plain metal rarely achieves, while the PE wicker weave across the seat and back adds texture, keeping the design from feeling one-dimensional.
