must have: eames house bird

birdata must have: eames house birdWe’re putting the finishing touches on the February 2009 issue of STYLE AT HOME, our first-ever “Accessories”-themed issue! It’s been so much fun pulling together all the glamorous and gorgeous “smalls” that help make a house a home, but as always, there’s just not enough room in the book to share all of our faves. I’ve coveted this little guy ever since Paul Harper, managing director of Toronto’s design destination, South Hill Home, included one in the tablescape he designed for our June 2008 issue. Known as the Eames House Bird, this must-have for any mantel boasts sleek, graceful curves and a sexy black lacquer finish. Popularized by the legendary Charles and Ray Eames, the bird is the pinnacle of “haute folk”, and one of the most iconic accessories of the 20th century. A reproduction based on the original in cooperation with the Eames Family is now available through Design Within Reach!
