Frequently Asked Questions
Was the Eames Elephant produced during Charles and Ray Eames's lifetime?
No. Charles and Ray Eames designed the Elephant in 1945 as a plywood prototype, but it was never put into production during their lifetimes. Vitra later realized the design, first in plywood and then in molded plastic.
What material is the Vitra Eames Elephant made from?
The current production version is made from molded plastic, which gives it durability and allows for a wide range of colors. An earlier limited edition was produced in plywood, closer to the original 1945 prototype.
Is the Eames Elephant suitable as a functional seat for children?
Yes. The plastic version is designed to bear the weight of a small child and can serve as a low seat or stool. It is equally at home as a decorative object in adult spaces.
Why do the Eames Elephant's ears have that distinctive shape?
The broad, outward-facing ears were a deliberate formal choice by Charles and Ray Eames, giving the piece both visual balance and an immediately recognizable silhouette. They also function structurally, stabilizing the form.
How does the Eames Elephant fit within the broader Eames design philosophy?
The Eameses consistently believed that good design should serve people at every stage of life, including childhood. The Elephant reflects their conviction that rigor of form and a sense of delight are not opposing qualities.
