Description from the seller

This vintage Eames House Bird by the manufacturer Vitra is a design by the duo Charles and Ray Eames, made from ash wood with a black lacquer finish. This version is crafted to showcase the natural grain of the wood, which contributes to the lively charm of the figure.

Charles and Ray Eames constantly enlarged and enriched the collage in their Eames House by adding objects they had collected during their travels.

Body: alder wood, black lacquer finish.
Poten: steel wire
Dimensions (l/h/w): 27 x 27.6 x 8.5 cm
Weight: 605 grams

This object is not perfect, but just right. Authentic vintage with minimal patina and a story — carefully selected with an eye for detail. It will be securely packed and shipped with smart, registered, and insured shipping.

Seller's Story

I have a passion for vintage design, and my objects mainly come from Scandinavia. I seek out unique gems that are then offered to new owners through this platform. I ensure that the objects are very well packaged so they can arrive safely. I hope that, through my circular mission of sustainability, these beautiful objects can be given a second life, serving as a good example for many others.
