Vitra holds the distribution rights in Europe and the Middle East.‎The rights in the rest of the world are held by MillerKnoll.‎Featuring a welded steel wire seat shell, the compact LKR chair is a variation of the LSR models with a shell in fibreglass-reinforced or polypropylene plastic.‎ Charles and Ray Eames used both wire and fibreglass versions in the furnishing of their own residence, the legendary Eames House in the Pacific Palisades neighbourhood of Los Angeles.‎ Like all other models in the Wire Chair family by Vitra, the LSR is available without upholstery, with a seat cushion or with a two-piece seat and back cushion – also known as the 'Bikini' pad due to its shape.‎ In the powder-coated variant without upholstery, the LSR is also suited for outdoor use.‎The Wire Chair LKR is available in four new colours based on the palette designed by Charles and Ray Eames.‎ Vitra has developed the fresh colour combinations citron, sky blue, dark green and Eames Seafoam Green.‎Designed by Charles and Ray Eames out of welded steel wire, the Wire Chair is a variation on the theme of the organically shaped one-piece seat shell, combining transparent lightness with technological sophistication.‎ The seat shell can be combined with a choice of different bases.‎ The Wire Chair is available without upholstery, with a seat cushion or with a two-piece seat and back cushion known as the ‚Bikini‘ pad due to its shape.‎The Wire Chairs have a powder-coated finish; some models are also available in a chrome-plated version.‎ DKR and DKX models with a powder-coated finish are ideally suited for both indoor and outdoor use.‎In 2016, Vitra added roughly 20 mm to the base height of the Wire Chairs while adapting the seat geometry accordingly.‎These revisions, which are aesthetically almost imperceptible, increase the comfort of this classic chair design, especially in combination with contemporary tables.‎The Wire Chairs by Charles and Ray Eames owe their transparent look to the spot-welded steel wire shell, while the wooden base of the DKW (Dining Chair K-Wire Wood Base) lends a contrasting note of warmth to the essentially technical appearance of the design.‎ The metal components of the DKW chair have a black powder-coated finish; the wooden legs of the base come in various shades of maple.‎Upholstery: unupholstered, with seat cushion or with seat and back pad.‎ Seat and back pads can be removed and reattached; available in Hopsak fabric or leather.‎
