«A Rebel in Rattan»
Born in the boundary-breaking 1960s, this rare rattan chair and ottoman set channels the bold spirit of Finnish designer Eero Aarnio. With a silhouette that playfully echoes an elephant’s foot, it’s anything but subtle—this piece was made to stand out.
Handwoven curves and sculptural lines make it a celebration of both nature and futurism—a true statement of the Atomic Age, when design wasn’t afraid to get a little wild.
Revived with care, its organic texture has been gently cleaned and preserved, keeping the imperfections that tell its tale. This isn’t just furniture—it’s a conversation starter, a collector’s gem, a rebellious icon brought back to life.
Let it be the piece that makes your living room unforgettable.
Woven from the Future
In the 1960s, when design dared to dream, Finnish visionary Eero Aarnio imagined a chair that defied convention. Sculptural, surreal, and organic—this rattan piece, affectionately nicknamed the “Elephant Boot,” became a rare expression of the Atomic Age’s playful rebellion.
Its curves don’t just invite you to sit—they invite you to wonder. About the hands that wove it. The rooms it once lit up. The stories it soaked in over decades of quiet presence.
Now restored with reverence, its patina glows with age and intention. Not flawless—but far more interesting because of it.
«A piece like this doesn’t match your furniture—it leads it.»
