Beer Barrel Stool & Parasol Stand – Natural Wood 38 x 32 cm

A compact barrel-shaped stool made from natural wood, doubling as a parasol stand. At 38cm tall and 32cm in diameter, it is sized for patios, small gardens, balconies, or indoor use as a side table or plant stand. The natural wood finish shows the grain of each piece, giving every barrel its own character. Why This Works Genuinely multifunctional — use it as a seat, a parasol base, a side table, or a plant stand. The central hole accommodates a standard parasol pole when you need shade. Compact enough (38 x 32cm) for smaller outdoor spaces like balconies, courtyard gardens, or café terraces where full-sized furniture won't fit. Natural wood construction with visible grain means each piece looks slightly different — aged, warm, and characterful from the start. Sturdy enough to sit on, solid enough to hold a parasol steady in a breeze. Works indoors too — as a hallway stool, a bedside table, or a display stand for a potted plant. Solid Wood, Rustic Finish Crafted from natural wood in a traditional barrel construction — individual staves bound with metal hoops. The natural finish is left unsealed to highlight the wood's organic colour and grain variation. Over time, the wood will develop a natural patina from sun, rain, and use. The metal hoop bands add structural strength and visual contrast. Placement and Care Place on any flat, stable surface — patio, deck, grass, or indoor flooring. When used as a parasol stand, ensure the parasol pole fits the central opening. To extend the life of the wood outdoors, bring it under cover during heavy or prolonged rain, or treat with a wood sealant or oil if you prefer a protected finish. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Minor surface weathering is normal for natural wood and adds to its rustic appeal. From Barrel to Furniture Barrel furniture draws on a long tradition of repurposing the cooper's craft for domestic use. The shape is inherently strong — curved staves and tight hoops create a structure that bears weight well
