Eero Aarnio Elephant Boot Chair – Rattan Lounge & Ottoman, 1960s Stendig

Bring home a true design treasure with this vintage Eero Aarnio rattan lounge chair and matching ottoman, produced in the late 1960s by Stendig in Hong Kong — the authorized manufacturer of many iconic Aarnio designs.

With its bold curves and natural woven texture, this sculptural set captures the playful modernism of the era. The chair’s cocoon-like silhouette and the hourglass ottoman create a statement piece that blends comfort, design history, and organic warmth.

Originally from a private collector’s home in Pennsylvania, this set has been carefully conditioned, cleaned, and sealed to preserve the integrity of the rattan and extend its legacy.

Please note: This set bears minor imperfections consistent with age, including small breaks or variations in the rattan weave. These do not affect stability or use, and they only enhance the authentic vintage character of the piece.

A rare find for Aarnio collectors, MCM enthusiasts, or anyone looking for soulful vintage furniture with character and pedigree.
