1946 Eames Evans Herman Miller CTW Round Wood Coffee Table in Calico Ash
This is a CTW Circular Wood Leg Coffee Table, initially designed by Ray and Charles Eames for the Evans Molded Plywood Company in 1946. It was released as a part of the “Plywood Group” for Eames Office, and the piece was distributed by Herman Miller. This is a very early example, dating to 1946. CTW is an acronym that stands for Coffee (C) Table (T) with a Wood (W) base. It features a circular five-layer plywood top which sits upon four legs made with bent plywood, and has a Calico Ash veneer.
This table measures 34 inches in diameter, and stands 15.5 inches high. There is some very slight wear apparent on the edges of the top, and there is some slight discoloration on the surface in some areas. It retains its Evans label on the underside of the piece. Overall, this table is in very good vintage condition. Please see photos.
