Sale Price: NZ$1,295.00 Original Price: NZ$1,495.00

Designer: Eero Aarnio

Maker: Asko - Finland

Year: 1968

Size: H 530 x D/W 920

Condition Report: good vintage condition. Fibreglass body is in good shape, minor expected wear with age. Central seam has been re-glued at some point. Reach out for detailed images

.

Showcasing the organic possibilities of moulded fibreglass in an unconventional way at the time of creation, Aarnio's Pastil chair conveys a futuristic sensibility, and has been used in various science fiction movies and television shows.

The Pastil is the shape of its namesake, a pill, with central section that has been scooped out to create a relaxed seating experience. With no feet, the chair easily spins and rocks making it a comfortable and forgiving seat, despite it’s solid construction.

The fibreglass shell allows it to be used both indoors and outdoors. We’ve heard rumours of them being used as a snow sled in the past, however we certainly wouldn’t recommend it with this original 60s edition.

NOTE: We have just ONE left
