Cone Chair

Verner Panton, 1958

Verner Panton originally designed the Cone Chair for a restaurant in Denmark. It takes its shape from the classic geometric figure for which it is named. The padded shell forms the back and armrests and, together with the soft seat cushion, creates an exceptionally comfortable armchair, which is mounted on an elegant brushed or powder-coated stainless steel swivel base.

New materials & colours

In addition to the existing Tonus fabric, the Cone Chair is now also available with covers in Cosy 2, Volo, Cento and Hola or in Premium Leather. Cosy 2, Volo and Leather Premium are suited for areas subject to intensive use, and Cento and Hola are also highly durable – while Tonus is recommended for residential settings only. As a result, the ideal Cone Chair can be configured for every environment, including public and semi-public spaces.
