Designed by Charles and Ray Eames out of welded steel wire, the Wire Chair
is a variation on the theme of the organically shaped one-piece seat shell,
pairing transparent lightness with technological sophistication. The wire shell
can be joined with a variety of different bases and is offered without
upholstery, with a seat cushion or with a two-piece seat and back cushion
known as the ‘Bikini’ pad due to its shape.
Wire Chair models with a powder-coated finish are also suited for outdoor
use. The new compact Wire Chair models LKR (Lounge Height K-Shell
R-Wire Base) and DKR (Dining Height K-Shell R-Wire Base) are additionally
available in a fresh palette of colours.
