Vitra - Miniatuur Stool Model A

Vitra Miniature Stool Model A.

This miniature was designed in 1960 by Charles and Ray Eames

The stool series was designed for the lobby of the Time-Life Building in New York in 1960, which was the tallest building in NY at the time.

Not long after, the walnut stools also appeared in the Eames' home, becoming one of their favorite pieces of furniture and this series is still a real "eye-catcher".

The stool has a width of 5.5 centimeters, a depth of 5.5 centimeters and a height of 6.5 centimeters.

Note: the scale of the miniature is 1:6.

Miniaturization means concentration: Vitra Design Museum faithfully recreates furniture design classics in miniaturized three-dimensional form. Many of these designs, such as Le Corbusier's chaise longue or Gerrit Rietveld's red and blue chair, are today as widely known as the most celebrated works of art and are coveted by museums and collectors around the world. These miniatures illustrate at a glance what design means and what role it plays in the industrial production process.
