Description
The distinguishing features of the full-sized Womb Chair are replicated here in this Vitra Miniature edition of the original. As part of the Vitra Design Museum collection miniature editions of classic chairs were produced to form part of a modern furniture design history display. The construction, materials and colours of the miniatures correspond to the historical Vitra Design Museum collection originals, 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 materials for universities, design colleges and architects.
