Eames Wire Base Low Table, Herman Miller X Hay

Design Charles & Ray Eames, 1950
Cast glass, powder-coated steel
Made by Herman Miller

“What I admire about art is the unexpected, the originality; architecture is of course the context and the home of what we make, and fashion has a wonderful dynamism to it, reflecting the spirit of the time and what’s happening right now. I would say that the best products we have done, they may exist somewhere in between these three environments, drawing from a little bit of everything.” – Rolf Hay

In a new light, for the Herman Miller x HAY Collection, the Danish design house HAY thoughtfully reimagines Eames classics in new vibrant colorways. The Eames Wire Base Low Table is now available in a unique cast-glass and steel version. This version of the Eames Wire Base Low Table is suitable for outdoor use.

In the late 1940s, Charles Eames noted all the “fantastic things being made of wire.” That fascination led Charles and Ray Eames to develop a mass-production technique for simultaneously welding wire rods. One result was the wire-base table introduced in 1950. Practical in so many milieus, the tables gave the Eameses the perfect place to serve chanoyu, the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, to special guests, such as sculptor Isamu Noguchi and film star Charlie Chaplin. Today these lightweight, diminutive tables stand on their own, next to beds and chairs as an accompanying surface, or on top of each other in a convenient stack.
