Yrjö Kukkapuro Experiment Chair in White Leather and Blue Armrests for Avarte
Yrjö Kukkapuro Experiment Chair in White Leather and Blue Armrests for Avarte
An Experiment chair designed by Yrjö Kukkapuro for Avarte, featuring sculptural blue armrests, a chrome-plated metal frame and white leather upholstery. The Experiment series is one of Kukkapuro’s most recognisable postmodern designs, combining an exposed structural frame with bold colours and relaxed proportions. The chair has a low, lounge-like seating position supported by a chrome sled frame.
Its curved blue armrests form the most distinctive part of the design, while the white leather cushions create a fresh contrast against the painted wood and polished metal. The separate seat and back cushions sit lightly within the open frame, giving the chair an airy appearance despite its generous and comfortable proportions.
The chair’s scale and clear profile allow it to work naturally as an individual seating piece in both contemporary and vintage interiors.
Good vintage condition with light signs of age and use. The white leather shows gentle creasing and minor surface wear. The blue armrests and chrome frame have some small marks and patina, but no major damage is visible. Please review all images for details.
