eames elephant Designed by Charles & Ray Eames
2007 marks the 100th birthday of one of the world's most beloved
designers, Charles Eames. To celebrate Vitra is producing the ledgendary
Eames Elephant - for the first time ever - in a limited edition.
In the early 1940's, Charles & Ray Eames developed a method for
moulding plywood into complex three-dimensional shapes, a technique they
applied to sculptural objects as well as furniture. The Eames Elephant has
since become a ledgend among collectors; only two prototypes were created,
both of which were subsequently displayed in an exhibition at the New York
Museum of Modern Art.
Originally conceived both as a toy for children and as a decorative object,
the Eames Elephant catches the eye with its cheerful curves and flowing
shapes.
Made from moulded maple plywood in a natural or red stain.
Production limited to 1000 pieces in each color world wide.
