The Miniatures Collection presents the most important classics of modern furniture history in miniature. The construction, materials and colours correspond to the historical Vitra Design Museum collection original, right down to the last detail. Because they are so true to the originals, the miniatures are not only valuable collector`s items, but also ideal illustrative material for universities, colleges of design and architects. For each miniature there is a licence agreement with the designer or their estate. Many designers collaborate with us to develope the miniatures of their own designs and offer their assistance by supplying information on the objects. In return, we honour the designer`s copyright by paying royalties. Miniature of the Aluminium Chair by Charles & Ray Eames, designed in 1958. This chair formed part of the 'Aluminium Group' of chairs, designed for domestic use indoors and outdoors. Ironically it is now mostly used in office applications. Dimensions: H 139 × W 99 × D 98mm |
