The 1950s were a prolific decade for George Nelson's design office. The Nelson Thin Edge Group (1952), Swag Leg Group (1954), and Coconut Chair (1956) are just a few of their mid-century designs that remain in production today at Herman Miller . While less ubiquitous than other icons of the era, the Coconut Chair has always charmed Brent Lewis, Director of Design at Heritage Auctions.
