In the card it says "semi-bar stool," but in the description it says "frame": how to buy the wooden STU-009 and understand in advance what is included in the product

The estimate includes four STU-009 chairs for the kitchen island. The designer sees "Semi-bar stool STU-009" on the card, the painter sees "Under enamel," the assembler reads "Frame of semi-bar stool STU-009" in the description, and the client expects to receive fully finished furniture. At this point, it's easy to start duplicating parts in the purchase: separately adding a brass footrest, separately screws, separately a seat, or even including soft upholstery that is not required in the STU-009 design at all.

It is more correct to read the card as a specification of a specific product. The STU-009 already includes a wooden concave seat, backrest, legs, a standard brass support ring Ø14 mm, and its attachment with four brass M6 screws. At the same time, the current product configuration is marked "Prestige / Under enamel," meaning the decorative wood finish still needs to be agreed upon. This is exactly the difference between the completeness of the structure and the readiness of the product in terms of color.

As of the time of writing this article, the STU-009 has dimensions of 450×749×417 mm. The price is 63,150 ₽ in beech and 80,340 ₽ in oak. If the product has already been selected, you can buy the wooden semi-bar stool STU-009, but before paying for the batch, it is better to fix in the order the material, finishing scheme, and actual completeness according to the current card.

Wooden semi-bar stool STU-009: what the current card confirms

According to the current card, the STU-009 has one main dimensional configuration:

Parameter	Value
Size	450×749×417 mm
Material	Beech / Oak
Sanding	Prestige
Preparation	For enamel
Seat	Wooden, concave
Leg connection	Tongue and groove
Support ring	solid brass Ø14 mm
Ring finish	Patina
Ring mounting	4 brass screws M6
Packaging	Rigid box

Prices:

Material	Price
Beech	63 150 ₽
Oak	80 340 ₽

If the item is not in stock, the product card indicates an average production time of 5–10 days for custom orders.

The main mistake is to perceive the word "frame" as proof that the customer will receive a set of separate wooden parts without a seat, backrest, and footrest. The description of the STU-009 itself refers to a formed structure with a concave wooden seat and a standard brass ring.

But the opposite mistake is also possible: the word "chair" does not mean that the current item is already painted in the final interior color. "Under enamel" means preparation for further opaque finishing.

Why one product card simultaneously says "chair" and "frame"

The product title says "Semi-bar stool STU-009".

The description begins with the phrase "Frame of semi-bar stool STU-009".

For the buyer, these two words may sound contradictory, although the product card itself helps to understand the real situation.

STU-009 already has:

• a wooden seat;
• a backrest;
• legs;
• a tongue-and-groove structural joint;
• a metal support ring;
• ring fastening.

Therefore, "frame" here cannot be automatically understood as "only a bare base to which everything needs to be purchased separately."

At the same time, the product configuration remains for further finishing. Therefore, "chair" cannot be understood as "a fully finished item in terms of color that can be immediately placed in a ready-made interior without additional solutions."

The practical interpretation for purchasing is as follows:

The STU-009 structure is formed, but the wood finish needs to be approved separately.

This is the exact phrase to keep in the project specification sheet.

Brass footrest STU-009: separate purchase or part of the structure

The STU-009 description specifies a solid brass ring made from Ø14 mm bar stock.

It serves two functions:

1. acts as an additional stiffening element;
2. serves as a footrest.

This is not a random accessory from the "frequently bought together" block, but an element directly described in the STU-009 structure.

Therefore, the estimate:

STU-009 × 4
brass footrest × 4

may duplicate what is already provided by the product itself.

It is better to ask the manager a short question before ordering a batch:

Confirm that the current delivery of STU-009 matches the described configuration with the standard brass support ring Ø14 mm.

After such confirmation, a separate ring is not added to the procurement list.

This is especially important for commercial projects where different people are responsible for purchasing furniture and decorative metal. One sees the "frame" and automatically orders footrests from another supplier, the second receives a complete structure — and extra hardware appears that has nowhere to be installed.

Four brass M6 screws: why they cannot be automatically duplicated in the order

The card indicates that the support ring is attached to the legs with four brass M6 screws with a round head and a straight slot.

This gives the buyer important information about the design, but is not a reason to independently add four more screws to each chair.

For four STU-009 units, the arithmetic would look like this:

4 chairs × 4 screws = 16 M6 screws.

But if these screws are already part of the standard design of the supplied product, an additional purchase of 16 pieces would be a duplicate.

Therefore, you cannot build a specification based only on a photo and a description of individual connections. You need to distinguish:

the characteristic of the design

и

the item that needs to be purchased additionally.

If the card describes the ring and screws as part of the STU-009 itself, the assembler first confirms the actual delivery with the seller. Only after that does he decide whether any spare hardware is required.

Wooden seat STU-009: is separate upholstery needed

Another typical mistake arises from the word "frame."

The buyer may decide:

since it is a chair frame, it means you need to order foam rubber, fabric, and the work of an upholsterer.

For STU-009, this is incorrect logic.

The card directly describes a concave wooden seat. That is, the product does not belong to those frames where a soft seat is a mandatory next step.

The estimate should not automatically include:

• foam rubber;
• fabric;
• decorative cord;
• upholsterer's work;
• furniture straps or other soft materials.

If the designer wants to change the structure itself and make a custom soft pad, that is a separate project. It should not arise from misreading the word "frame."

"Under enamel": here's what actually remains after purchase

STU-009's current base configuration is Prestige / Under enamel.

This is the key to understanding what exactly is still incomplete.

"Prestige" refers to the quality of sanding.

"Under enamel" means that the wooden blank is prepared for opaque finishing. This is not the name of a finished color.

Before finishing, you need to determine:

• what color the chair should get;
• where the painting will be performed;
• what system of primer and enamel is used;
• what degree of gloss is required;
• who is responsible for the reference sample;
• how the brass ring is protected during finishing work.

If the interior requires factory painting, this issue needs to be discussed separately with the manager and confirmed in the order. It cannot be assumed that the price of 63,150 or 80,340 ₽ automatically includes a custom color if the current configuration is shown specifically as "Under enamel".

Beech or oak: wood species is a mandatory line in the order

STU-009 is available in beech and oak.

The price differs:

80,340 − 63,150 = 17,190 ₽ per chair.

For a batch of four:

Beech

4 × 63 150 = 252 600 ₽.

Oak

4 × 80 340 = 321 360 ₽.

The difference:

321 360 − 252 600 = 68 760 ₽.

Set of 4 STU-009	Cost
Beech	252 600 ₽
Oak	321 360 ₽
Difference	68 760 ₽

This is already a noticeable part of the project budget.

Therefore, the wording:

STU-009 — 4 pcs.

too short.

Minimum:

STU-009 / beech or oak / Prestige / Under enamel / 4 pcs.

The material should be chosen together with the future finish and the rest of the kitchen furniture.

Why brass on kitchen handles and brass on STU-009 do not guarantee the same shade

In STU-009, the support ring is made of solid brass and has a patina finish.

If brass handles, lights, or a faucet have already been chosen for the kitchen, the word "brass" by itself does not guarantee a visual match.

The perception is influenced by:

• metal shade;
• patination;
• gloss level;
• surface texture;
• lighting;
• proximity to the wood color.

Therefore, it is useful for the designer to compare a real sample or at least current photos of the hardware with the STU-009 ring.

What cannot be promised:

Brass handles and a brass ring — meaning the color will be exactly the same.

The correct wording is:

Both elements belong to the brass range, but the match of the specific metallic finish needs to be checked separately.

Four STU-009: what a normal B2B specification looks like

For a kitchen with four identical chairs, the order can be written as follows:

STU-009 / 450×749×417 mm / beech / Prestige / Under enamel / standard brass ring Ø14 mm with patina / 4 pcs. / wood finish to be agreed separately.

For oak, the material changes.

Additional Items:

The inclusion of the standard ring and M6 fasteners to be confirmed against the current delivery before payment.

This line is useful because it does not make the buyer guess whether the metal and screws are included in each specific delivery.

In a large project list, you can add:

Parameter	Recorded
Model	STU-009
Size	450×749×417 mm
Material	Beech / Oak
Sanding	Prestige
Preparation	For enamel
Ring	brass Ø14 mm, patina
Ring fastening	4 brass screws M6
Quantity	4
Wood finish	Approve
Lead time	Confirm
Delivery	Confirm

This way the client, designer, painter, and supplier work with one version.

Why you don't need to assemble STU-009 from three suppliers

A misread word "frame" can lead to a strange purchasing scheme:

• the wooden base — from STAVROS;
• the brass ring — from a metalworker;
• the screws — from a fastener supplier.

But the card already describes the ring and its mounting as part of the STU-009 structure.

So the first question is not "where to buy the ring?", but:

Does the current delivery of STU-009 match the current product description?

If yes, there is no need to artificially split the construction among three suppliers.

This reduces the risk of mismatches in ring diameter, hole positions, metal finish, and fasteners.

Rigid box: why packaging needs to be considered in logistics

STU-009 is delivered in a rigid box.

The product card does not specify the box dimensions, so they cannot be invented.

But for a batch of four or six chairs, the logistics specialist still needs to decide in advance:

• how many cargo units will be in the delivery;
• where to store the items before installation;
• how to organize the lifting;
• who accepts the box;
• when to open it;
• how to record packaging damage upon receipt.

If chairs are shipped to another city, do not plan storage space based on the chair's dimensions of 450×749×417 mm. Rigid packaging always takes up additional volume, and specific sizes need to be requested separately.

Receiving STU-009: what to check before painting

After delivery, do not immediately send the entire batch to the painting workshop.

First, check:

• item number STU-009;
• quantity;
• dimensional configuration;
• the material;
• sanding "Prestige";
• preparation "Under enamel";
• presence of wooden seat and backrest;
• presence of a standard brass ring;
• compliance of the ring with the declared finish;
• ring mounting kit;
• condition of the rigid box and the product.

If four chairs are to receive the same finish, it is better to accept them in one batch and finish them according to one agreed sample.

Natural wood does not have to have an absolutely identical grain pattern, but the finishing system and color must be uniform according to the project.

A fully finished finish is needed: when looking at Hygge 003-004

If the buyer does not want to separately approve the wood staining, it is worth looking at a ready-made semi-bar model of the same size group — Hygge 003-004 Counter Stool.

It has the same overall dimension of 450×749×417 mm, but the product logic is different: it is already a finished furniture model with finish options.

The fork is simple.

STU-009 — when the project needs a basic chair with its own upholstery scheme.

Hygge 003-004 — when it's more convenient to choose a ready-made upholstery configuration.

This does not mean that one model is "better." They cover different stages of the project.

A bar stool is specifically needed: STU-009 is not renamed for the sake of a frequency query.

STU-009 is called semi-bar in the product card.

It should not be called a "bar stool" just because the query "buy wooden bar stool" is more frequent.

If the project truly requires a bar model, you need to switch to the corresponding product, for example, the bar stool STU-006..

This way, search semantics do not break the actual product name.

In this article, the task is not to compare heights or choose between bar and semi-bar seating. The main point is to understand what the buyer gets exactly in STU-009.

Party for a cafe or restaurant: what to agree on at once for the entire order

For a commercial interior, it is especially risky to order the first chair according to one specification, and the rest later according to another.

For the STU-009 batch, it is better to fix immediately:

• one wood species;
• one sanding;
• one finishing system;
• one color;
• one approach to the metal finish;
• total quantity;
• production time;
• delivery scheme;
• acceptance criteria.

If, for example, 12 chairs are required, the cost of only the products at the current price will be:

Beech

12 × 63 150 = 757 800 ₽.

Oak

12 × 80 340 = 964 080 ₽.

The difference:

206 280 ₽.

With such a budget, the specification "STU-009 — 12 pcs." is too risky. All parameters of the batch need to be fixed.

How to agree on one color for four STU-009

When chairs are purchased as a set, the finish should be designed not for a single item, but for the entire batch at once.

First, one sample is approved on the same wood species selected for STU-009. For beech and oak, the same test cannot be automatically used as if the base were identical. Even under opaque enamel, surface preparation remains part of the technological process.

After the sample is approved, the following is recorded in the painting task:

• chair material;
• the primer system;
• color code or sample;
• gloss level;
• number of layers;
• method of protecting the brass ring;
• acceptance criterion for the entire batch.

It is useful to photograph the approved sample next to the actual kitchen front and save it together with the specification.

If four STU-009 units are finished on different days or by different craftsmen, the risk of visual mismatch is higher. Therefore, it is better to handle one set as a single finishing task.

At the same time, absolute identity of natural wood between individual pieces cannot be promised. The project's goal is a unified finish and a consistent system, not an artificial attempt to make a natural material completely identical.

Can the standard brass ring be removed or replaced for a different design?

Sometimes the designer likes the wooden silhouette of STU-009 itself, but the patinated brass ring seems too warm for an interior with chrome or black metal.

This task should not be solved on site by simply replacing the ring with an arbitrary product.

In the product card, the brass ring is described not only as a footrest but also as an additional stiffening element. This means its geometry and attachment are part of the chair's structure.

If the project requires a different metal, a different color, or a different ring, first request the manufacturer for a custom option. Replacing a standard part on your own may change not only the appearance but also the structural behavior.

The following logic is especially dangerous:

the ring is just decoration, we'll remove it after purchase.

For STU-009, this does not match the product description.

The right way:

first agree on the change → get a confirmed decision → only then process the batch.

If the manufacturer does not confirm another option, it is better to choose a model where the required metallic finish is standard.

Acceptance of four STU-009 as one furniture set

For a set of four chairs, acceptance must be joint.

First, check the product parameters of each item:

Check	STU-009 №1	№2	№3	№4
Material	___	___	___	___
Prestige	Yes / no	Yes / no	Yes / no	Yes / no
For enamel	Yes / no	Yes / no	Yes / no	Yes / no
Ring Ø14 mm	Yes / no	Yes / no	Yes / no	Yes / no
Ring patina	Check	Check	Check	Check
M6 mounting	Check	Check	Check	Check
Box condition	___	___	___	___

After this, the chairs are placed side by side and evaluated as a set: whether the metal finish looks the same, whether there is any obvious confusion in the material, and whether all items conform to one approved specification.

Only after incoming inspection is the batch transferred to finishing.

This procedure reduces the risk of discovering after painting that one of the four units is from a different wood species, has a different configuration, or was accepted with damaged packaging.

What should remain in the documents after purchasing STU-009

After payment, it is useful to keep not only the invoice.

The project folder should contain:

1. the card or the fixed specification of STU-009 as of the order date;
2. material and quantity;
3. description of the standard brass ring;
4. data on M6 screws;
5. the selected finishing scheme;
6. approved color;
7. delivery terms and conditions;
8. acceptance result.

This is especially useful if the chairs are ordered for a restaurant, apartments, or a facility where a reorder may be needed in a few months.

Then the new set can be compared not against a memory of "we think we ordered STU-009 in oak," but against the actual saved specification.

When it's better not to buy STU-009

STU-009 is not suitable for a buyer who expects fully painted furniture in a ready interior color without additional finish approvals.

It is not suitable for those who require a soft upholstered seat as a mandatory part of the original model.

It is not suitable for a project that specifically needs a bar stool, not a semi-bar one.

It should not be bought blindly if the designer requires a strictly specified shade of the metal footrest, but the patinated brass of STU-009 has not yet been compared with the rest of the hardware.

And there is no need to choose STU-009 just because the word "frame" seems like a cheaper or "semi-finished" option. At the current price, this is a full-fledged expensive product with a specific construction, not a set of blanks.

Errors when ordering STU-009

Error: interpret the word "frame" as absence of a seat. The card confirms a concave wooden seat.

Error: order the footrest separately. The brass ring is described as a standard structural element.

Error: automatically add 4 M6 screws for each chair. First, confirm the actual delivery configuration to avoid duplicating fasteners.

Error: wait for the finished color. Current configuration is "Under enamel".

Error: mix beech and oak in one batch without a design decision. These are different product variants and different prices.

Error: consider any brass hardware identical in shade. The STU-009 ring has declared patina.

Error: call STU-009 a bar stool for SEO. The card defines the model as semi-bar.

Before paying for the batch, we re-check the card

Before issuing the final invoice, it is useful to reopen the STU-009 card and verify the price, material, production time, and current configuration. For an expensive batch, this protects against a situation where the project list was compiled earlier, but the product data has already been updated by the time of payment.

Final specification for four STU-009

After selecting the material, the request may look like this:

STU-009 / 450×749×417 mm / beech / Prestige / Under enamel / standard brass support ring Ø14 mm, patina / quantity 4 pcs. / confirm ring mounting kit M6 / agree on wood finish.

For oak:

STU-009 / 450×749×417 mm / oak / Prestige / Under enamel / brass ring Ø14 mm, patina / 4 pcs.

Such an order is much more precise:

"Four semi-bar stools."

If a buyer works with a commercial request "buy wooden semi-bar stool", the specific product must remain specific: STU-009, its material, finish, and configuration.
