Vitra is renowned for quality and timeless furniture and unique and design-forward accessories. There are home furnishings and design pieces that have been around for decades! Vitra's Eames House Bird, for example, is an iconic Mid-Century accessory that is still widely recognized and appreciated.

The Eames House Bird is normally available in walnut and black finishes, but Vitra added 2 special finishes in 2023.
The versions stained in dark green or pale rose are part of the Eames Special Collection 2023 and are only available until the end of January 2024.

I digressed a bit, but the Resting Animals were released in 2018, so they are considered brand-new by the Mid-Century modern standard! The collection was designed by Front, a Stockholm-based design studio founded by Sofia Lagerkvist and Anna Lindgren.

Inspired by people's close connection between humans and animals, Front created a set of slumbering animal figures whose poses exude tranquility and serenity.

The largest among the Resting Animal Collection is the Resting Bear, a knit-covered stool that can also be used as a backrest or an ottoman.

This lazy slumbering bear is so inviting and makes me want to take a nap next to it. It was my favorite design among the Resting Animals; however, the size was substantial, so I had to pass on it. I was looking for decorative objects that I could display on a floating shelf.

The bear is huge!

The Resting Bear can be ordered in 3 fabric finishes - mauve, turquoise, and blue.
The other two animals from the collection - Resting Cat and Bird - are much smaller and made of ceramic.

If you're a cat person, this figurine will be your instant favorite! The figure represents a sleeping cat's posture beautifully, all curled up and snuggling.

I particularly liked the Resting Birds - available in 2 sizes and 3 finishes, they are so cute when paired together.

I highly suggest purchasing them as a pair - they look much more balanced when they're together.

You can either pair them in the same finish or mix and match. I got the sand and white Resting Birds, and they are amazing!

Serene and peaceful animal figures can be placed anywhere, not just on shelves! I have the pair of Resting Birds on a shelf, and looking at them enriches my mornings.
