Two leather swatches I have considered...

I'd go with the cream. It looks like you have a "short" overhang. Make sure your stools are not deep so that they don't extend past the countertop when pushed in.

How deep is the over hang? It doesn't look deep enough for knees.

10” overhang..... so narrow and backless and not round swivel....? dark wood cream seat?

and ahould I add pendants over island?

I don't think I would do any stools on the short end.

Do you know what the backsplash is? I'm looking for tile to go with Taj Mahal and it looks like that is your counter too.

Is the kitchen open to another space? Could we see pics if so?

Backsplash is mosaic botticino 2x4 tmb

Noplan to change floor tile for now.... wish i could.... ould Iuse a narrow stool.i,e this?

I would do a light to medium tone for that space. do you have any accent colors in your space or are you doing all neutral?

I have these stools in my home and have for 6 years and they are very comfortable and have worn very well. Lots of options for upholstery.

That is one of the stools I am considering. I just wasn't sure about the color of wood. I see black walnut and thought either of the swatches I included would work. I am fairly monocromatic and have some light green right now, but I like changing it out. Would the bone color look ok on that dark wood and would that dark wood be ok since it's more black?

That dark base will virtually disappear against your island but wouldn't be bad at all, I might go with the light chestnut which looks like it would bring in a color from your floors. The wood color would be easy to paint if you got tired of it or if you changed your colors. good luck with your decision.

A low back might work.... just trying to keep small for that area. i just eant two stools in that side area we keft room for. we often access the front of island and did t want a line of stools there.
