Harry Bertoia-The Diamond Chair
The Diamond chair is a popular translation of design success in the 50’s. The name behind the success is not unfamiliar—Harry Bertoia had his own way amidst a host of contemporary European designers— he sculpted online furniture store wonders! Alumni of the Cass Technical High School in Detroit, Bertoia trained on a scholarship at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan. In 1943, he joined the Charles and Ray Eames team for the Evans Product Company, which experimented on molded-plywood seating. His studio in Pennsylvania is where the ‘Diamond’ chair was born and the year was 1950. Made of welded steel latticework, the design gained immense popularity and he received royalties that allowed him to focus on his sculpting career.
The Bertoia Diamond Arm Chair used welded steel with rods in polished or satin chrome. Quite the zing thing for modern furniture model of the times, the chair was made scratch, chip, and chemical-resistant, also remarkable was the wire seating that included glides. Cushions were secured to the chair with lock-snaps. Full covers stretched over the wire seat basket and attached to seat basket with hooks. In Bertoia’s words, “If you look at these chairs, they are mainly made of air, like sculpture. Space passes right through them.” I guess in his words we have the best description of the legendary chair.
Harry Bertoia’s passion for sculpting can be seen in some of his early sculpts, especially the Torry pine tree, native to La Jolla, California where he started his early sculpting career between 1947-1949. It is a compelling piece. Well, historically, the piece is unique as being his very first wall-mounted piece; secondly it also exemplifies Harry’s expression of nature. The composition of the sculpture is technically complex and dynamic. The unique part is the way it allows the eye to travel through several branches and complex paths, and yet complete tree form is never out of sight. It is a moment captured, and the tree is growing.
Interestingly, Bertoia never signed or titled his work, for he believed the piece itself was a signature. He thought what he created belonged to the universe (that inspired the work); and that he did not need to apply his name or a title. He believed that a signature or title forced personality, meaning, and value, calling attention to the artist rather than the piece itself. He liked to stay away from classification and categorization. Instead he chose to convey his connection to the universe, and not necessarily remain bound to earthly conventions. Well, to him and his free spirit…. cheers!
