OW Lee Casa Replacement Cushions — Custom Cut to Your Measurements

Casa is the dining group within O.W. Lee’s Bistro program — breakfast chairs, counter stools and bench pieces built around family tables. This walk-through covers how to recognize the group, what to tape on each chair, and how replacement pads get priced from three dimensions per seat.

Casa in outline

In O.W. Lee’s current catalog, Casa is the dining group inside the Bistro collection — side chairs, counter stools and bar stools on the company’s hand-forged frames. That family placement matters for identification: the cushion shapes are dining-slim, not deep-seating lofts, and the stool variants share one seat pattern at different heights.

Order of operations for dining sets: name the group, tape each chair — seat and back separately — then send the count with dimensions. Casa pads come back cut to those figures in any of 119 upholstery options, one rate across the book, stitched on the floor that ships them.

Set the table in order: the build first — hand-forged scrollwork on heavy-gauge frames separates these chairs from anything imported; the mark second — O.W. Lee attaches a brass plaque or stamps a rail on every piece; the records third — nationwide dealer sales mean an invoice or order history states the collection, and big-box receipts mean it is something else. Our taping walkthrough completes the check.

Telling Casa from the rest

Read the piece type first: Casa covers dining-slim seats — side chairs for the table, counter stools and bar stools at two taller heights. The pads are thinner and firmer than O.W. Lee’s deep-seating lofts, and the frames keep the company’s hand-forged weight and brass plaque or stamped mark.

Check the family: the factory’s own site files Casa seating under the Bistro collection. If your order paperwork or dealer quote names Bistro, and the pieces are dining-height or stool-height, you’re in the right place — order tickets for the group run through the same dealer network.

Don’t confuse it with: Monterra’s club dining chairs (OW24), which run wider and deeper on loungier proportions. Both are current O.W. Lee dining, but the pads don’t interchange — the dealer invoice and the seat deck measurements separate them.

Height variants matter: the same Casa seat pattern serves side chair, counter and bar heights, but seat height changes how a pad reads on the frame. Measure each piece’s seat deck — width, depth, thickness — and note which pieces are stools before you order.

Why Casa sizing was never published

Dining groups fare worst in the records: O.W. Lee charts no per-collection pad dimensions, and Casa sitting inside the larger Bistro program makes a public list less likely, not more. Dealer figures, where they surface, describe whole chairs. The spec that works is the one you build — three dimensions per seat, taped off the piece, and nothing else enters our cutting notes.

Chairs arrived with no plaque and no receipts? Photograph a couple of frames and write in — we will place the group, then it is three dimensions per seat and the bench follows the same routine.

Before ordering: the tape work

Seat by seat, not set by set: with our measuring guide as reference, take width, depth and thickness at the seam for every chair, stool and bench block, and log them apart — dining sets drift a quarter inch between positions. No factory chart exists, so these entries are the entire specification for your Casa order.

Closest O.W. Lee neighbors: Monterra (current line with its own dining group, charted piece codes) and Chalet (a retired catalog name). All O.W. Lee guides live on the OW Lee collection hub.

Fabric options & estimated pricing

For dining duty, three families cover the range: cotton linen as the durable daily driver, tech fabric for spill-prone households — water beads, wipes off — and premium velvet when the eating area doubles as the formal room, claws notwithstanding. The the fabric card in the configurator prices every bolt identically behind the same measured cut.

Seats run from $168 for the typical piece, set by size and density grade — 35D to 65D — with every fabric at parity on price. Checkout locks the final number; the bench starts only after your figures are confirmed back. All covers close with zips and wash off the foam.

Casa piece list: the catalog record

Casa is the dining group inside the Bistro family — a current line on the factory navigation — and it runs the shortest piece list of any collection we cut for: dining chair, counter stool and bar stool. No sofa, no chaise, no ottoman. Everything in the Casa program lives at a table or a counter, which makes it the line to check first when every pad you need belongs to a kitchen pass-through, an outdoor bar or a breakfast counter rather than a lounge grouping.

Height is what separates the three bodies, and height is where orders go wrong. A dining chair pad answers a seat roughly at table height; a counter stool answers a kitchen-island height; a bar stool answers the tallest rail of the three. The frames look alike in photos, so identify by where the piece lives, not by eye. Then measure the seat block and the back block separately — stool backs on this line are tall, and a full-height back figure sent as one number with the seat produces a pad that fits nothing. Two blocks, two sets of figures, one order.

Casa against its nearest retired cousin: Chalet ran the identical trio of dining chair, counter stool and bar stool before it left the catalog. The frames differ in the details — Chalet’s vocabulary leans heavier and more ornamental — but the honest answer for two counter stools from different decades is the same: measure the pad you have, and the cut lands regardless of which name is on the plaque.

Where Casa came from, design-wise

Counter-height and bar-height seating takes more daily cycles than any lounge piece in the yard — breakfast, coffee, homework, cocktails — and the pads show it years before the frames do. Because every Casa piece is a two-block build with no arms to work around, this is also the friendliest line for a first measured order: seat figure, back figure, done. Sets rebuild in matched fabric in one run, which keeps the height and firmness of a four-seat counter row stepping together instead of one pad at a time.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an official Casa replacement source?

Through dealers, yes — Casa sits inside the current Bistro program, and its replacement pads ride the dealer route on custom tickets. The factory charts no sizes for the group; an independent cut from your dimensions covers single seats without the wait, 119 fabrics at one rate.

Will standard-size cushions fit my Casa chairs?

At a dining table the mismatch is audible before it is visible — pads shifting seat to seat. O.W. Lee decks run deep and exact; universals matching the width miss on depth or loft, and curvature defeats them. Each-position measurements are what keep a set sitting level.

How do I check whether my chairs are Casa?

Look for three things together: dining-slim seats, stool variants at two heights, and paperwork that names Bistro or Casa. The brass frame plaque names the maker; the slim pads rule out the deep-seating collections.

Can you work from owner-taped measurements alone?

Every order runs that way. Each seat’s width, depth and seam thickness comes from your tape; our check compares them against the chair count, and the sewing follows your numbers — no chart consulted, none needed.

What should I budget for Casa cushions?

Seats open at $168 for the typical piece; size and density grade (35D–65D) move the number, fabric never does. The final figure is confirmed before cutting starts.

How long until my cushions ship?

Sets sew after the order clears: 4–7 business days on the standard schedule, 3–5 on rush, flat-rate delivery on the back end — about 3–6 weeks door to door.

Ordering here: what’s guaranteed

• A decade-plus of in-house production — we cut, fill and sew every order on our own benches; the chain holds no middlemen and no dropshipping.
• Each order’s figures get re-checked before fabric moves — the three entries per pad set against the piece count, so a mis-key never reaches the bench.
• Stock is fabric, never finished sets — any bolt, any frame, from one seat to forty.
• Should the cut miss by more than ±½″ (±¾″ past the 36″ mark), or the fabric or sewing come back wrong — remade free.

Casa seating from $168 per piece: check the group, tape each seat, confirm the number.

A fresh rebuild on the Casa frame

Casa dining chairs carry tight-weave bodies that shrug off the weather; firm ivory pads keep the set looking current season after season on a stone patio.
