The Eames Elephant in Plywood was designed in 1945 by Charles and Ray Eames for Vitra. A prototype of the playful and decorative ornament was displayed at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1946 and still survives in the Eames family archives today. After a limited edition in 2007, Vitra has now launched a serial production of the Eames Elephant in plywood for the first time.

The playful and stylish Eames Elephant has, in addition to the construction in plywood, a cover of American cherry veneer. It is also available in plastic, ideal for children, and in a smaller version, the Eames Elephant (small), which is available in different colours.
