Strapped wire chairs Eames
Having achieved success in the production of plywood chairsand plastic, Charles and Ray Eames came up with a sturdy yet lightweight wire chair at a reasonable price. First released in 1951, the Eames chair was an immediate hit and has stood the test of time, being as popular today as it was half a century ago. Akira Ishikawa decided to soften the chairs a bit and give them a sophisticated personality with… yarn!The chair's mesh wire base isa wonderful canvas for knitting. Having chosen the desired color of yarn, you can easily knit the entire seat and back with simple braids and weaves. Warm, cozy, comfortable and made by hand. Photo source.
