Tipi Chair by Eero Aarnio for Adelta

Creator: Eero Aarnio
Offered by: Machine Age

Description
Created in 2002 by the Finnish designer Eero Aarnio for the German manufacturer Adelta, the Tipi Chair is an imaginative interpretation of what might constitute seating. Taking the form of a super-sized chick, the chair comprises a wool-covered foam body on a tubular steel frame, supported by yellow lacquered feet. This version is white.

Long out of production, the chair is rare and hard to find.
