Vitra Small Sand Ceramic Resting Bird by Vitra
Limited Edition: In 2018 the beautiful Walnut version was added to the HOUSE BIRD family - a prized possession of Charles and Ray Eames, the HOUSE BIRD by Vitra has been a decorative part of the collage-like Eames House interior for decades.
Charles and Ray Eames enriched their private home, the Eames House, with numerous objects and accessories that they brought back from their travels. For over fifty years, the figure of a black wooden bird has stood in the centre of the living room – an artefact of American folk art that was evidently highly treasured by the couple, since it also appeared frequently as an accessory in photographs taken by Charles and Ray.
With an ethos rooted in the belief that thoughts and feelings can be positively influenced by the good design around us, Vitra collaborates with designers and architects from all over the world to create life-improving homeware and furniture. Today, Vitra comprises an educational campus and a design museum, with recent developments putting the focus on the sustainable future of their iconic pieces ranging from chairs to clocks.
