This store is Aero Design Furniture in Helsinki.
Is it just one shop or whole chain? It is near Design Museum and Kartell Flagstore.

The one that got away...
A few years back I spotted one at one of the Goodwill stores in Helsinki, only to find out it was already sold (couldn't bear to ask the price, knowing they always sold their furniture for next to nothing but something like 50 euro would be my guess)..and oh, it was in orange and in stone mint condition, too 🙁

Such a shame-
I do know the feeling and feel your pain,but sometimes you win.Got a nify Paul McCobb Planner Group end table,excellent unrestored condition for $9.99 yesterday.Missed out on a McCobb bedroom set at the Salvation Army last year.Keep trying,you will find treasure if you persist.
