This George Nelson Coconut Lounge Chair, designed in 1955 for Herman Miller, is an iconic example of Mid-Century Modern design. This specific chair was manufactured by Vitra in the 90’s continuing the legacy of one of the most important figures in American design.
The chair features a molded reinforced plastic shell, upholstered in black leather, and supported by a sleek triangular chromed-steel frame. Its sculptural, coconut-inspired shape adds both comfort and visual appeal, making it a standout piece for any modern interior.
Originally created by George Nelson during his tenure at Herman Miller, this design quickly became synonymous with Mid-Century Modern style. After Herman Miller’s production rights in Europe and the Middle East ended, Vitra began manufacturing this chair in the 1980s for international markets, and continues to produce it today.
