Description
The Eames Elephant from Vitra was designed following the huge success of the original limited edition Eames Plywood Elephant which was created to celebrate the 100th birthday of Charles Eames in 2007. This legendary furniture sculpture was designed in 1945 but never produced for general distribution or sale.
As both Charles and Ray Eames were fascinated by elephants and the Plywood Elephant was designed both as a toy for children, and a striking sculptural object that made a statement in any environment with its vigorous curves and delightful character. This polypropylene version is just as lovable and is enjoyed by adults and children alike. It makes a cheerful addition to any room or garden.

Charles & Ray Eames
Charles and Ray Eames were the husband-and-wife design team who helped shape modern design as we know it. Famous for their playful yet functional approach, the Eameses worked across architecture, furniture, industrial design and even film and photography — always with the belief that good design should improve everyday life.
Their collaboration with Vitra began in 1957 and has since produced some of the most iconic pieces in modern interiors, from the Eames Lounge Chair to the Eames Plastic Chair collection. More than just beautiful objects, their designs embody a philosophy of practicality, comfort and timeless style. As Charles Eames once put it, “Recognising the need is the primary condition for the design.”
Today, Vitra continues to honour and produce the Eames’ creations, ensuring their legacy lives on in homes, offices and public spaces around the world.
