Wire Chair Eames Collection
Charles & Ray Eames feature among the most important figures of twentieth century design. Their work is multi-faceted: they devel-oped funiture, produced films and photographs, organised exhibitions and designed and built their own house as a pioneering endeavour.
Vitra has produced and marketed the furniture designs of Charles & Ray Eames since 1957. First produc-ing under license, Vitra obtained exclusive rights to all Eames prod-ucts for Europe and the Middle East in 1984. Consequently, we are the sole legitimate manufacturer of Eames designs in this part of the world. The brand gives you the security of owning an original product by Charles & Ray Eames.
Wire Chairs can be used in all kinds of spaces at home, in cafs, restaurants, waiting areas and in conference and training rooms.

For the design of the Wire Chair (1951), Charles and Ray Eames used the shape of the famous Fibreglass Chair. With their innovative use of humble steel wire, the Eameses created an original and groundbreaking design. The use of wire makes the chair light and transparent, producing the impression of a three-dimensional metallic drawing. The seat and base are chrome plated (special stacking version available with linking elements). Bright slim line fabric or leather cushions add even more comfort to these chairs.
