Design Sleuth: Industrial Kitchen Stools from Nicolle in France

Beyond Tolix: Our new favorite French kitchen stool? The classic Nicolle stool (also called the “whale tail stool”), designed in the 1930s for use in factories and workshops and reissued in 2008. The stools are available in a range of colors and with leather or wood seats. In the US, the stools are available from Home Stories in Brooklyn and Rejuvenation.
