Story
Stools added to the Risom line
Knoll's design-plan page says that Knoll has now added bar and counter height stools to Jens Risom's designs, among them a teak version made for outdoor use. The shop says Risom designed the collection's chairs in 1942, while the page says the collection was designed in 1943.

Two heights
The stool comes at bar height and at counter height, and the design-plan page also lists slat-back versions of both heights next to the webbed-back ones.
