Between 1950 and 1952, Charles and Ray Eames began investigating bent steel wire and different welding techniques as a basis for a new kind of furniture. After much experimentation, they molded a shell seat using cross-woven steel and mounted it on a bent-wire base. The sculptured look made it an instant classic, and the innovative design won the couple the first ever American Mechanical Patent for Design.
