Charles and Ray Eames applied the same breakthrough technology
that resulted in their famous molded plywood chairs to create
this simple, lightweight, imaginative table in the mid-1940s.
With its thin, slightly indented top and gently curved legs, the table speaks eloquently of the fertile early years of classic Eames design.
The table's round, slightly indented top and gently curved legs are shaped by the Eameses' process of sandwiching thin wood veneers under heat and pressure. Three strong, lightweight hardwood inner plies are pressed between natural face veneers.
The curved legs are eight-ply molded plywood with natural face veneers. Available veneers are walnut, natural cherry, ash, and ebony-stained ash.
