"Vitra Wooden Dolls by Alexander Girard, 1963"
The Wooden Dolls from Vitra (Alexander Girard, 1963): Alongside Charles and Ray Eames as well as George Nelson, Alexander Girard was one of the most influential figures in American design during the postwar period. The focus of his broad oeuvre was on textile design, the intensive study of popular art of South America, Asia and Eastern Europe was an essential source of inspiration. The Wooden Dolls, which Girard created for his own home in Santa Fe and made himself, are likewise inspired by his own extensive folk art collection. Half decorative element, half toy, the Wooden Dolls were originally intended only for personal use. Based on originals found in the Girard Estate held by the Vitra Design Museum, the partly joyful, partly grim-looking company of dolls is now coming out as a charming enhancement to any interior.
