About the Item

Designed by renowned architect and designer Frank Gehry for Vitra, the Wiggle Side Chair is one of the most iconic pieces from the celebrated Easy Edges collection. Introduced in the 1970s, the series challenged conventional ideas of furniture design by transforming an everyday material—corrugated cardboard—into sculptural and functional objects with remarkable visual impact. The chair is constructed from layered corrugated cardboard, revealing the material's natural texture and creating a striking interplay of curves, lines, and organic forms. Gehry's innovative approach demonstrated that humble materials could be used to create sophisticated design pieces, a concept that has made the Easy Edges collection highly influential and collectible. With its flowing silhouette and distinctive ribbon-like base, the Wiggle Side Chair blurs the boundaries between furniture, sculpture, and contemporary art. Whether displayed in a modern interior, design collection, gallery setting, or creative workspace, it serves as an unmistakable statement piece. Today, the chair remains one of the most recognizable designs by Frank Gehry and an important example of late 20th-century design history. With Label
