Livorno Cafe Bar Table - Sand Terrazzo

The Livorno Cafe Bar Table in Sand Terrazzo is 80cm square and 104cm high, on a tapered base, for outdoor use. At 104cm it is bar height, so it takes stools rather than dining chairs. The square top seats four standing or two on stools comfortably.

A bar table outdoors solves the problem of a courtyard too small for a dining setting. Standing height means no legroom to plan around, and a square 80cm top takes four people leaning without anybody reaching across.

Measure before buying stools. At 104cm you want roughly 25 to 30cm between the seat and the underside of the top, which puts the right stool seat around 75 to 79cm. A standard kitchen stool will be wrong.

The caveat is stability. A tall table on a small base is the one piece of outdoor furniture that genuinely moves in wind, so it wants a sheltered position or bringing in rather than trusting its weight.
