Vintage Coconut Sessel von George Nelson für Vitra in schwarzem Leder Glas_Karaffe_1980 The gentle rocking motion makesGeorge Nelson's 1955 Coconut Chair translates a simple idea into a clear form. Eight segments of a coconut become a generous seat shell. Precisely drawn, slightly playful, yet consistently modern. As design director at Herman Miller, Nelson shaped post war American design and set the stage for names like Eames, Noguchi, and Girard. This vintage example from Vitra is executed in black leather. A serene lounge chair that looks natural in living spaces
