Vitra Eames DKX Wire Chair - With Seat Upholstery FAQs
What does “DKX” stand for?
DKX means Dining Height K-Wire X-Base. It’s part of the Eames Wire Chair family, designed by Charles and Ray Eames in the 1950s.
What makes the DKX different from other Wire Chairs?
The DKX sits at dining height and features the distinctive cross-shaped X-base. It’s designed for use at dining tables, desks, and workspaces, unlike the lower LKR lounge version.
Is the DKX comfortable with only a seat pad?
Yes – the ergonomic wire frame supports the body, and the seat upholstery adds extra comfort without altering the chair’s light, transparent look. For even more cushioning, the version with both seat and back upholstery is available.
What upholstery options are available?
Vitra offers a wide choice of fabric colours, so you can tailor the chair to your interior style.
What finishes are available for the frame?
The wire frame comes in chrome-plated or powder-coated finishes, both durable and elegant.
Where can I use the DKX Chair?
The DKX is ideal for dining rooms, kitchens, home offices, and commercial spaces such as restaurants or meeting rooms.
Does the seat pad stay in place?
Yes – the upholstery is securely fixed to the wire frame, becoming an integral part of the design rather than a removable cushion.
Is the DKX Chair durable?
Absolutely. The steel wire construction is strong and stable, and the high-quality upholstery is designed for everyday use.
Why choose an original Vitra production?
Vitra manufactures the chair to the original specifications, ensuring authenticity, comfort, and the lasting design value of a true Eames classic.
