Coconut Chair is designed by George Nelson for Vitra in 1955 with shell in glass fibre reinforced plastic in white, with one-piece polyurethane foam padding, covered with leather or fabric.
Base in tubular steel, polished chrome finish, with fitted with plastic glides for carpet or felt glides for hard floors.
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 a variety of 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.
