Ceramic stool poolside ?

I am wanting to use a couple

of ceramic garden stools beside our chaise lounges as I see this decor on design apps and love the look. My fear is having something breakable near a swimming Pool. are these stools sturdy, not going to blow over in a windy storm. Is it too risky having it by a pool?

For safety's safe, I would stick with traditional pool furniture! I would be afraid of someone breaking the ceramic items, making it a hazard to walk around.

I have a ceramic stool in our outdoor sitting area. It would be hard to knock it over (it isn't top heavy) and I'm not sure it would break if you did. It was either from Pier1 or Cost Plus World Market- so not expensive. But if you are concerned and want piece of mind, you might look for an enamel coated metal version to get the look without any fragility.
