put a bird on IT...


Charles and Ray Eames put a bird on it years ago (circa 1950's)....

I watched the second episode of Portlandia last night (via itunes season pass)... 




...it reminded me of my friend Elsa's online shop Elsa + Sam...so visit her site and PUT A BIRD ON IT...haha...
(Elsa use to have an adorable store on Hawthorne Blvd in Portland. Now she is a mommy and runs her dishware boutique from home...bonjour Elsa.)

images: (top) I believe this image is a detail from the Charles and Ray Eames film, Powers of Ten. 2. Eames Bird sold by Vitra.  (bottom) ELSA + SAM: 1. Circa ceramics bowl,  2. Fine Little Day Cheeseboard “OK”  3. Wren old-fashioned glasses.
