Yrjö Kukkapuro Postmodern “Cloud” Chair in Pink, Yellow & Green

One of Yrjö Kukkapuro’s iconic chairs and one of the earliest creations in his Post-Modern style that started in the 1980s with his experiment chairs. This chair, named Pilvi (Cloud) and also nicknamed Clown due to it’s playful and colourful appearance was design for the Lahti city theater in 1983. The chair is rare and was never produced commercially except for the Lahti theater and a couple of other public places.

The chair features a colourful combination of bent wood, fabric and metal. It also has one arm rest which was added by utilizing a left over peace after the cutting of his plano chair that was produced in the 1970s. A brilliant playful and much sought after design chair.

The original fabric has a couple of minor stains. Due to its collectability we decided to leave it as is, even though replacing the fabric is a minor reupholstery process.
