Histoire
A long, low table
Charles and Ray Eames designed the Elliptical Table in 1951. Herman Miller characterizes its plan as an expansive arc and its profile as notably low, while the store records both the 89-inch length and the table's “surfboard” nickname.
Plywood and wire
The table brings two recurring Eames materials together: a layered plywood top and a wire base. The sharply controlled bevel exposes the top's thin profile, while the paired wire supports carry the long surface close to the floor.
