Charles Eames RAR Rocker for Kids

Karen

The classic RAR Rocker designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1950.  Now available for kids to enjoy

Plastic Armchairs were presented by Charles and Ray Eames as part part of the famed New York Museum of Modern Art competition, ‘Low Cost Furniture Design’.

Their organically shaped seat shells made of plastic were later combined with various different bases, such as RARs rockers, and manufactured in their millions.

In their latest version made of polypropylene the Armchairs now offer even greater sitting comfort and importantly can now be recycled.

So whether your little one’s want to rock for fun or curl up with a picture book.  The kids RAR rocker is perfect for all occasions.

A Legend Returns

Karen

This legendary furniture sculpture was designed in 1945 by the infamous Charles and Ray Eames, but was never produced for general distribution or sale.

As both Charles and Ray Eames were fascinated by elephants and the original Plywood Elephant was designed both as a toy for children, and a striking sculptural object that makes a statement in any environment with its vigorous curves and delightful character.

The success of the Plywood Elephant meant it soon sold out but for 2008.  This unique design has now been  re-produced in a polypropylene edition in 5 striking colours – a delight for both adults and children alike.
