Description: Vitra Eames Elephant Large Pale PINK Beautiful piece to own! Very gently used. Great condition. Does have a few very minor scuffs. Please see all pictures for condition and more detail as they are part of the description. The elephant that Charles and Ray Eames initially developed out of plywood in 1945 is available in plastic as a toy or decorative object in a variety of colors, and not just for children's rooms. In the early 1940s, Charles and Ray Eames spent several years developing and refining a technique for molding plywood into three-dimensional shapes, creating a series of furniture items and sculptures in the process. Among these initial designs, the two-part elephant proved to be the most technically challenging due to its tight compound curves, and the piece never went into serial production. One prototype, which was given to Charles's 14-year-old daughter Lucia Eames, was loaned to the Museum of Modern Art in New York for a 1946 exhibition. It is still in the possession of the Eames family today. Whether selected as an elegant wooden object for the living room, as a robust plastic toy for a child's bedroom or outdoor use, or as a small decorative animal figure the friendly animal with its proudly prominent ears will bring delight to children and parents alike.
