Eames Elephant Chairs -- so perfect!

Not long ago, I stumbled upon these adorable chairs by Charles and Ray Eames. It doesn't fail to fascinate me how these two created designs a half a century ago that still look so strikingly modern today. And though there are many Eames designs that have stayed popular through the decades, I'd never seen these before. How could I have ever missed them? Elephants are my favorites.





And who is to say that they wouldn't make cute endtables, too?

Cute! Love the chairs! Eames is so clever! I saw this other whimsical-like piece from officedesigns.com called the Nelson Ball Clock. I gotta have it! It's just too cool!
