Girard Bird by Vitra
In the mid-1940s, the designer Alexander Girard experimented with a series of abstract sculptures made of glass, foam rubber, corrugated cardboard, driftwood, plywood and solid wood – including an avian figure carved by hand out of wood from an apple tree. These sculptures were presented in the July 1945 issue of the American magazine 'Arts & Architecture'.
Made from solid maple wood sourced in France, the bird can stand on its feet or tail. A pair of birds work very well as characterful bookends.
