The
Heart Cone Chair, designed in 1958 by
Verner Panton and produced by
Vitra, is an iconic piece of twentieth-century design. With its sculptural silhouette inspired by the shape of a heart, this remarkable chair combines bold aesthetics with enveloping comfort, perfectly illustrating the visionary and experimental spirit of the Danish designer. Following the enthusiastic reception of the Cone Chair in 1958, Verner Panton quickly developed this new interpretation. Thanks to its distinctive heart-shaped curved backrest, the design rapidly became a legendary icon, instantly recognizable for its expressive silhouette and sculptural presence. Its structure rests on an elegant metal base that contrasts with the generous and expressive seat. The
Heart Cone Chair is distinguished by its dynamic backrest that opens like wings, creating a strong graphic presence while allowing great freedom of movement. Its soft padding ensures excellent seating comfort, making it far more than just a striking visual object. Available in a wide range of upholstery options including Tonus, Cosy 2, Volo, Cento and Hola fabrics as well as Premium leather, the Heart Cone Chair can take on very different characters depending on the chosen colors and materials. This variety of finishes allows it to integrate seamlessly into both residential interiors and public spaces, where durable textiles ensure longevity and performance. Today, the
Heart Cone Chair is still manufactured using traditional craftsmanship faithful to the original design. Sculptural, expressive and functional, it remains a timeless icon produced by Vitra, capable of bringing character and originality to any environment.
