Description

Girard's passion for folk art resulted from his extensive travels to Eastern Europe, South America, and Asia. He was a keen collector of this art, and it clearly inspired many pieces of his graphic and product design. For this and many other reasons, Girad's work surely stood out during the post-war period of austerity.

The Wooden Dolls by Alexander Girard are a large family of wooden figures representing human and animal characters. Girard designed them in 1952 for his own use as decorative objects in his Santa Fe home.

Vitra is the sole authorized manufacturer of specified Nelson products for markets in Europe and the Middle East.

Starting as a furniture producer, it paved its way to manufacturing and ultimately became the powerhouse design institution we see today.
