Why choose the Wire Chair DKR? An original Vitra piece with an incomparable historical pedigree. A filigree structure of great visual lightness Iconic, timeless styling by Charles & Ray Eames A design work that spans generations without losing its value A wire icon with striking graphicsThe Wire Flesh DKR transposes the aesthetics of the Shell Fleshs into a spectacularly slender metal architecture. The seat shell, designed in welded steel wire, embraces organic forms with a single stroke, while playing on transparencies and shadows. It rests on the famous "Eiffel Tower" Legs, a masterpiece of visual balance and technical robustness. This delicate yet bold design makes it an emblem of modern design. A manifesto of structural ingenuityBehind its sculptural allure, the Wire Flesh conceals a remarkable technical inventiveness.

Our Stylist Says

This wire chair is a timeless piece that lends a sleek, minimalist edge to any space. I love how its silver finish complements both contemporary and industrial interiors, making it versatile as an accent. It's perfect for adding a sculptural touch without overwhelming a room, whether tucked into a corner, used alongside a desk, or as part of a layered lounge area. For practical styling, pair it with plush cushions or a colourful seat pad to soften the look and increase comfort. In a neutral setting, it can serve as a statement piece, while in more eclectic interiors, it adds some modern sophistication. Its lightweight design also makes it easy to reposition, giving you flexibility in rearranging your space whenever needed.
