Eames house bird



Eames house bird


Charles and Ray Eames augmented the interior ‘collage’ of the Eames House with numerous objects brought back from their extensive travels. The figure of a black wooden bird – evidently one of their most prized objects of American folk art – has stood in the centre of their living room for over fifty years. Based on the original artefact and in cooperation with the Eames family, Vitra is now producing the first series of this figure.
