Vitra Organic Highback Chair by Charles Eames & Eero Saarinen

Charles Eames and Eero Saarinen created several different versions of the Organic Chair for the “Organic Design in Home Furnishings” competition held in 1941 by the MoMA. From a technical perspective, the designs were ahead of their time. However, due to the lack of suitable manufacturing technology, they never went into serial production. It was only later that organically shaped seat shells could be produced and sold in larger quantities, exemplified by the Eames Plastic Chair by Charles & Ray Eames or the Tulip Chair by Eero Saarinen. 

The Vitra Organic Highback Chair is an elegant reading chair perfect for use in libraries, studies, home offices or simply in private reading corners.

This listing is for the Organic Highback Chair from Vitra. Also available is the Organic Chair (which can be found here) and the Organic Conference Chair (which can be found here).
