    Manufacturer: Vitra

    Designer: George Nelson 1955

    This is an original genuine Vitra piece.

    The Coconut Chair, a prime example of 1950s design, is distinguished by its humorous undertones, formal clarity and sparing use of materials. The designer himself, George Nelson, compared the armchair with a coconut cut into eight parts, though he reversed the colours: the outer shell of the Coconut Chair is white, while the one-piece cushion is covered with high-quality leather or fabric in various colours. By evoking the natural, spacious shape of a shell, Nelson created an inviting and comfortable armchair that allows the sitter to assume a wide range of positions.

    Upholstery: one-piece polyurethane foam padding.

    Seat height: 295 mm (255 mm with applied load, measured in accordance with EN 1335-1:2000).
