The Shell Chairs by Charles and Ray Eames, launched in 1950, are among the most important designs in the history of furniture design. The LAR version, with a steel wire base, became popular, earning the nickname "Cat's Cradle". The lightweight and versatile LAR is still an icon today, available in polypropylene or fiberglass, the latter appreciated for its unique and natural surface.
