A simple black bird is carved by Charles and Edna Perdew in 1910 and was popularized by Charles Eames. It was acquired by the Eames on their travel to the Appalachian Mountains and the rest is history. After appearing numerous times in their product photo shoots, it has become the highly sought-after center piece of many living rooms. After realizing the appeal of the simple decorative pieces, it has enriched the interior of Eames home and since then become the most beloved decorative objects of many households.
