Eames Elephant Plywood Cherrywood Stool Vitra SINGLE PIECES
Your advantages with einrichten design
personal, individual, passionately
An icon goes into series production: designed in 1945 as a prototype by Charles & Ray Eames for Vitra, finally available in series production in 2017 - this is the Eames Elephant Plywood with American walnut veneer.
Shaped wood
Charles & Ray Eames were already researching the technique of three-dimensional plywood moulding in the early 1940s. They used this technique in various designer furniture creations - including the two-part Eames Elephant.
However, as this was very demanding in terms of production technology, the plywood version of the Eames Elephant did not go into series production. Instead, Charles Eames gave the prototype to his daughter Lucia Eames.
The Plywood Elephant prototype is now part of the Eames family archive and is on display at the Museum of Modern Art.
A sculpture for your home
For fans of Charles & Ray Eames, the Elephant made of plywood with American cherry veneer is a real must-have. Until now, you could only order the Eames Elephant online in the coloured plastic version, which is suitable for children.
The Plywood Elephant, on the other hand, is a real prestige object that can be wonderfully staged in living rooms.
