Eames DKW-2 Wire Chair

Designed by Charles and Ray Eames out of welded steel wire with a chrome finish, the Wire Chair is a variation on the theme of the organically shaped one-piece seat shell, combining transparent lightness with technological sophistication. The seat shell can be joined with a variety of different bases. In addition, the Wire Chair is available without upholstery, with a seat pad or with a two-piece seat and back pad. Due to the shape of the latter, this is also known as the ‘Bikini’ pad.
