Eero Aarnio Pastilli Chair


Eero Aarnio Pastilli Chair

We love this space age modern chair which Eero Aarnio designed in 1967. The Pastilli chair is also known as the Gyro or Pastil chair. The Pastilli Chair received the American Industrial Design-Award in 1968 and can be found in numerous museum collections. The New York Times wrote about the Ball Chair and Pastil Chair at this time: "the most comfortable forms to hold up the human body", and the Conran's Design Dictionary says "they look like essays in period style, perhaps from Barbarella".


The Pastilli can be used both indoors and outdoors, and it even floats on water! The Pastilli chair gives a new, extraordinary idea of what a rocking chair is. It is amazing how comfortable one can sit a in such a shiny, oversized "sweetie" slightly turning and rocking side-, back- and forwards.
