Aeron chair

The Aeron chair is a product of Herman Miller, designed in 1994 by Don Chadwick and Bill Stumpf. It is an ergonomic chair which is expensive but which many regard as extremely comfortable. The chair became an unintended symbol of the rise and fall of the dot-com industry in the 1990s. However, its breakthrough design has gained it a spot in the New York Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection.

The chair is not upholstered. Instead, the seat and back are made of a strong but semi-transparent and flexible metal mesh called a pellicle.

The Aeron is sold in three sizes and with several options. The sizes are A, B and C for Small, Medium and Large respectively. If you are not sure of the size of an Aeron chair, feel under the upturned "lip" on the back of the chair—the number of raised dots corresponds to the size. Aerons can be ordered with different numbers of adjustments, colors and wheel types.
