Although initially too complex to put into production, the 1930
Propeller design quickly attracted attention and was featured as a
concept in several design books. A prototype was created in 1956
for the major memorial exhibition for Kaare Klint at the Danish
Museum of Art and Design, and the design went into production in
1962, eight years after Klint's death.
The idea of a folding stool was certainly not new; the concept
existed as early as the Bronze Age. Klint, however, refined and
optimized it, adding the innovative propeller element.
The stool is produced using wood with long, strong fibers that
help support the slim, sophisticated construction. An optional
Propeller Tray transforms the stool into a low table.
The stool is crafted from solid ash and features a canvas or
leather seat.
