The story behind the Charles Eames Wire Base Table Designed in 1950 as a result of Charles Eames fascination with 'the fantastic things being made out of wire'. Charles Eames' experimentations with metal wire rods & mesh eventually led to the development of a mass-production technique for simultaneously welding wire rods. He then went on to develop one of the world's first compact tables, the Charles Eames Wire Base Table. Charles Eames is said to have used the tables to conduct traditional Japanese tea ceremonies for special guests including Isamu Noguchi & Charlie Chaplin. Among Eames' wire-based furniture you also find the DSR Chair & the DAR Chair.
