    The present model was exhibited at the 'Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild', Kunstindustrimuseet, Copenhagen, 20 September-6 October 1957, stand 7. The stool attracted a great deal of attention during the exhibition, notably that of Queen Ingrid of Denmark, who was so impressed by its design that she decided to purchase a stool for her own rooms.
