Vitra Eames DKX Wire Chair - No Upholstery FAQs
What is the DKX Wire Chair?
The DKX is the dining-height version (seat height ~43 cm) of the iconic Eames Wire Chair, designed by Charles & Ray Eames in 1951. It blends lightweight transparency with functional design thanks to its bent and welded steel-wire shell.
Materials & Finish Options
• Seat shell & base: Steel wire, available in polished chrome or powder-coated finishes.
• Glides: Plastic glides for carpets; optional felt pads protect hard floors.

Outdoor Compatibility

Why Choose the Unupholstered Version?
