Product information
Description

Vitra Eames Wire Counter Stool.

In the 1950s, Charles and Ray started experimenting in bent and welded wire. Inspired by trays, dress forms, and baskets, the Eames Office developed a number of pieces, including the wire version of the single-shell form.

The shell design combines transparent lightness with technological sophistication. Eames Wire Chairs and Stools are available with an optional one-piece seat pad or crisscross two-piece “bikini” pad.

It is in this spirit that the Eames Wire Chair, itself the result of experiments with bent and welded wire in the 1950s, is now also available as a stool. The Eames Wire Stool has a light, airy shape and is available in different finishes, bar (75 cm) or counter (65 cm) heights, and with optional seat cushion or the two-piece leather cushion called the "bikini".

About the designers:

Ray and Charles Eames were an American designer couple whose name is familiar to anyone interested in modern design. Charles Eames was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1907. He studied architecture at the University of Washington and, at the invitation of the Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen, continued his studies in 1940 at the Cranbrook Academy of Arts, Michigan.

There he met Eero Saarinen, with whom he took part in a competition called 'Organic Design in Home'. Furnishings”, organized by the MoMA in New York. Eames and Saarinen won the competition using a plywood molding technique originally developed by Alvar Aalto. It was also in Cranbrook that Charles Eames met her future wife Ray, and the couple married in 1941.
