Harry Bertoia: Wire Chair

Bertoia was at Cranbrook during the period when Charles Eames was head of the Department of Experimental Design. The wire chairs of Bertoia appeared a year after the wire chair of Charles Eames. Although they are different in form, the basic concept is similar and both make use of the same material.
