Vitra Eames Wire Chair DKR-5 Seat Pad

This is an original genuine Vitra piece.

The Wire Chair was created the same year as the Eames Plastic Chair and, like this chair, is a sign of Charles and Ray Eames intense study of the design of the one-piece, organically shaped seat shell. The seat shell of chromiumplated steel wire gives the amazingly comfortable chair the expression of technical lightness.
