White Coffee Table w. La Fonda Base by Charles & Ray Eames
Designer: Charles & Ray Eames (base)
Maker: Formway (tabletop) - Base, we are unable to confirm the exact origin, produced by both Vitra and Herman Miller over the years.
Year: 1962 (designed)
Size: H 450 x D/W 1000
Condition Report: Good condition. Polished base in in great shape, some small scratching and scuffing in places. white tabletop shows a few scratches too. Reach out for detailed images.
.
The Eames ‘La Fonda’ range was designed at the request of Alexander Girard for the New York based La Fonda De Sol restaurant in 1961. Initially just a chair, a year later the side table was produced utilising the same style of base.
Possibly the most uncommon of the Eames bases, it strikes a nice balance between the Steel Rod style bases and the more substantial Aluminium Group bases, siting at a sweet spot between the two.
Two halves of cast aluminium bolt together to create the symmetrical base. Attached in this case to a more recently produced wood and laminate table top produced by Formway.
Making an excellent coffee table, the lightness of from and simple material palette make this a seamless addition in a range of contemporary spaces.
