Contemporary Furniture store Accurato now carries the entire line of eighty-nine miniature chairs by Vitra Design. Vitra Miniature Chairs Collection presents the most important classics in modern furniture history in miniature. Vitra Miniature Chairs are highly sought by collectors, architects and universities for their faithfulness to details. Contemporary Furniture Store www.accurato.us now carries the entire line of eighty-nine miniature chairs by Vitra Design and most can be shipped out immediately after ordering. The Vitra Miniature Chairs Collection presents the most important classics in modern furniture history in miniature. Construction, materials and colors correspond perfectly with the historical originals from the Vitra Design Museum. This faithfulness to the details makes the Vitra miniatures not only sought after collector's items but also ideal illustrative items for universities, design academies and architects. Lena Johnson, President/CEO of www.accurato.us states, "Our customers love these miniature chairs so we have decided to carry the full line with immediate delivery on most models. We have collectors nationwide that come back year after year to add to their Vitra miniature chair collections or order them as gifts for friends, family and colleagues." The Vitra Miniatures Collection is unique worldwide and represents such well known architects and designers as Charles Eames, Eero Saarinen, Frank Gehry, Verner Panton, Le Corbusier, Jean Prouve and Isamu Noguchi. A license agreement has been concluded with the designer or his/her legal successor for each miniature. Many designers collaborate with Vitra Design Museum in devising the miniatures. In return, they are paid royalties to reward the artistic copyright of the designer. Thanks to the perfect and precise craftsmanship with which they are made, all the elements and details of the original piece of furniture are transposed onto the Vitra miniatures on a scale of 1-to-6. The development process for the Vitra miniatures takes months of molding, selection of materials, and manufacturing processes. Each of these refined objects is made by hand. Tools and machines have been developed specially for the production runs involved. The Vitra miniatures are lathed, welded and upholstered with truly microscopic exactness; even the screws and bolts are only a sixth of the size of the originals! The Vitra Miniatures Collection is exclusively available through selected retailers. www.accurato.us is a full service contemporary furniture store and gift shop that sells modern furniture, lighting, and interior décor for home and office. Manufacturers represented include Vitra Design, Vitra Miniature Chair Collection, Knoll Studio, Ogus Design, Cherner Chair, Offi, Spazia, Modernica and more. Products can be purchased online twenty four hours a day at http://www.Accurato.us |
