Parabel Dining TableEero Aarnio $6,800.00The Parabel Dining Table was introduced at the International Furniture Fair in Cologne, Germany in 2003. It reaffirms Aarnio as a master of sculptural form. The smoothly shaped fiberglass is as organic and compelling as anything he's created to date. In our view (and personal experience), the Parabel dining tables are among the most beautiful contemporary table designs ever produced. The rounded angles and exquisite proportions are perfectly balanced and composed. The design is available in both a round and oval version and is transported from Finland in a massive, reinforced wood crating system to insure safe delivery.

Customers Also ViewedEero Aarnio was born in Helsinki, Finland in 1932, studied at the Institute of Industrial Arts and opened his own interior and industrial design office in 1962. Aarnio's iconoclastic seating solutions captured the optimism of the pop culture movement of the 1960s with their visually exciting, space-age forms. His designs possess both internationalism and individualism while upholding the traditional Scandinavian concern for aesthetic purity, quality and durability. Aarnio's inquisitive spirit led him to experiment with the synthetic capabilities of fiberglass and acrylic, culminating in his best-known designs, including the iconic Ball chair (1963), Pastille chair (1967) and the revolutionary, suspended Bubble chair (1968). His work resides in collections at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, Germany and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Eero Aarnio continues to design furniture, lighting, and everyday objects in his studio in Helsinki, where he lives and works. Select Eero Aarnio Designs |
