ZEELAND, Mich., Sept. 6, 2023
Herman Miller and Wright join forces to celebrate timeless design with an exclusive 100-piece capsule collection of rare vintage pieces.
ZEELAND, Mich., Sept. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- To celebrate its 100th anniversary year, Herman Miller—renowned for its enduring original designs—is giving discerning collectors and design enthusiasts a peek into its past with a curated selection of 100 rare vintage pieces.
Herman Miller Vintage is being launched in partnership with esteemed auction house Wright. This collaboration is a natural fit between the brands, as both have long been destinations for timeless, heirloom-quality furniture and stewards of sustainable, circular models.
Working in partnership with Herman Miller, Wright has sourced and meticulously vetted 100 pieces produced throughout Herman Miller's rich history. The collection includes both iconic and hard-to-find pieces, with many featuring custom fabrics and the remarkable patina that only the most well-preserved vintage pieces can offer. The full collection will be available online starting September 20; select pieces will be showcased through the end of October at Herman Miller's Park Avenue store in New York, the Herman Miller contract showroom in Los Angeles, and Wright's showroom in Chicago.
For the last century, Herman Miller has set the bar for original design, enduring quality, and exceptional craftsmanship. As a determined advocate for the circular economy and sustainability-driven design, Herman Miller continues to produce furniture designed to last for generations. Herman Miller Vintage is just one program intended to keep products out of landfills. Other programs, like rePurpose, funnel business customers' surplus furniture to deserving non-profit organizations, helping to divert thousands of tons annually from waste streams.
"Our rich history and leading role in 20th century design has yielded an extraordinary body of work that inspires a unique sense of connection, desire, and joy across generations," says Ben Watson, Herman Miller's Chief Creative and Product Officer. "This partnership with Wright celebrates the timelessness and craft that are innate to every Herman Miller product and offers a new channel for those who are passionate about sustainability and preservation."
"Herman Miller produced the most important American designs of the 20th Century. We are proud to play a part in promoting that history," says Richard Wright, founder of Wright.
The pieces will range, on average, from $500-$10,000. Sign up for early access to the sale here.
Shop the collection starting September 20 at 12pm EST. Select pieces will be showcased at the following locations from September 20 through the end of October:
Herman Miller New York – 251 Park Ave S, New York, NY 10010
Herman Miller Los Angeles – 3641 Holdrege Ave #100, Los Angeles, CA 90016
