The Design
Designed in 1966, the Platner Stool is truly a unique piece. Considered by many to be a design icon of the modern era, the Stool's harmonious forms are created by welding curved vertical steel wire rods to circular frames, producing a moiré effect.
Decorative, gentle and graceful, the Platner Stool is truly one of a kind. All metal components are finished in either bright nickel with a clear lacquer protective coating or painted metallic bronze.

With a long history of design innovation for the home, workplace, and in textiles, Knoll continues to play a large part in the foundations of Modern Design. Founded in 1938 by Hans Knoll and continued after his death by his wife Florence Knoll, the company has produced a long line of award-winning and museum worthy designs from virtually every top designer in modern design.
Knoll believes good design is good business. Since its founding, Knoll has been recognized as a design leader worldwide, with products exhibited in major art museums spanning the globe, and more than 40 pieces in the permanent Design Collection of The Museum of Modern Art in New York. Legendary designs such as the Womb Chair, the Tulip Chair, and the Barcelona Lounge Chair and Ottoman are instantly recognizable icons of the company.
In addition to Knoll’s commitment to design, Knoll is an industry leader in environmentally responsible practices. All manufacturing facilities in North America are ISO 14001-certified, and all Knoll architecture and design managers are required to attain LEED® Professional Accreditation, a rating system of the US Green Building council that is a voluntary, consensus-based national standard for developing high-performance sustainable buildings.
