10-YEAR WARRANTY - Freja Counter Stool

Freja Counter Stool is covered by our 10-year warranty, our promise that it is built for everyday life, for at least a decade.

The warranty covers the foundation, frame and structure, paint and finish, and materials against defects and premature wear under normal use.

It does not cover damage from incorrect or excessive use, accidents or modifications. Natural wear from everyday living is expected and covered, a piece of furniture broken through misuse is not.

If something does not hold up the way it should, email us with your order number and some photos, and we will make it right.

Description

Most stools ask you to choose from what exists. Freja Design Your Own starts from a taupe powder-coated steel frame and lets you build the rest: a cushion in vegan leather, bouclé or velvet across the full color range, an upholstered back or the bare low rail, in counter height (26 in / 66 cm), bar height (30 in / 76 cm) or any height you enter yourself.

Every choice renders live in 3D, your fabric on your frame, before anything is built. Because each Freja is welded and upholstered to order in Malmö, a custom counter or bar stool costs a configuration rather than a compromise, and the result is a combination only you have.

Each stool is an original by Crea, designed by Alexandra Pettersson and fully welded in one piece from raw Swedish steel, and it arrives fully assembled. Rated for up to 440 lb and covered by our 10-year warranty, it is built to be repaired rather than replaced, with spare cushions and parts available long after purchase. Choose 26 in for counters of 35 to 36 in, 30 in for bars of 39 to 40 in, or set your own height. Made to order in our Malmö factory and shipped within 10 to 15 business days.

“Freja was the first piece I ever drew. Seen from behind, the frame is the shape of a modern kitchen island: a stone top falling over its edges.”

— Alexandra Pettersson

Its welded steel frame is assessed by RISE, Sweden, as meeting EN 16139 Level 1, the European strength and durability standard for non-domestic seating.

Every fabric in the configurator is certified for demanding use: Valencia vegan leather, 300,000 Martindale with the PERMABLOK3 protective finish, EN 1021-1/2 fire safety and a 5-year fabric warranty; Matteo velvet, 130,000 Martindale, OEKO-TEX Standard 100, EN 1021-1; and Dolly bouclé, 50,000 Martindale, OEKO-TEX Standard 100, tested to BS 8479, grade 4-5.

Care & Maintenance

Fabric

Wipe down with a microfiber cloth, lukewarm water and neutral washing detergent. Do not use ph acidic or basic solutions like acetone or bleach.

Frame

Wipe with a microfiber cloth, lukewarm water and a normal cleaning agent. Refrain from using too acidic solutions as this will fade out the outer protection of the powder-coat.

Delivery, Returns & Assembly

Shipping
Shipping is calculated at checkout from your delivery address and the size of your order, so you see the exact cost before you pay. A tracking link reaches you by email the moment your order leaves our factory in Malmö, Sweden.

Delivery time
Orders to the United States are delivered by UPS, normally 2 to 5 business days after dispatch. Made to order pieces are produced first, and that production time is shown on this page.

Assembly
Most of our furniture arrives fully assembled. Dining tables and some outdoor pieces arrive with the top and legs packed separately, and fitting them takes 5 to 10 minutes and one screwdriver.

Custom orders
Anything configured through Design Your Own, with custom dimensions, finishes or materials, is produced specifically for your order and is not eligible for return. Order free samples first, or ask us in the chat, and we will help you get it right the first time.

FAQ

Choose the 26 in (66 cm) counter stool height for standard 36 in countertops, and 30 in (76 cm) for bar counters 40-42 in high. The ideal gap between seat and countertop is 9-12 in; custom heights are available via Design Your Own.

Yes, the seat uses high-density Swedish cold-cure foam (55 kg/m3) that keeps its shape over time, and the low backrest supports your lower back while the stool still slides under the counter. If you want full back support, the Philip bar stool adds a fully upholstered backrest.

Yes. The cushion attaches with two screws and can be ordered separately in any of the Freja fabrics, so you can refresh the color or replace a worn seat in minutes without replacing the whole stool.

Wipe the cushion with lukewarm water, mild soap and a microfiber cloth. The vegan leather (300,000 Martindale, easy-clean finish) and the powder-coated steel frame both clean easily with a damp cloth.

Allow 20-22 in of width per stool. A 6 ft kitchen island seats three Freja stools comfortably; with 24 in per stool the seating feels extra generous.

Yes. Order free material samples, or a single test stool with free returns, and try it at home before you commit.

Every Freja bar stool has a 10-year warranty, including the upholstery. Each stool is handmade in our own factory in Malmö, Sweden, and inspected by hand before it ships.
