Designer: Charles and Ray Eames
Maker: Vitra [ Switzerland ]
Designed: 1950
Material: Polypropylene, chromed steel
Dimensions: W 46.5 x D 55 x H 83 cm, seat height 43 cm
Quantity: Set of 4 — sold as a set
COMING SOON
Condition: Good
Honest wear — marks and patina. Everything visible is photographed.
The shell is one continuous curve, seat and back moulded in a single piece — the chair that made plastic a material worth designing in. Vitra makes it under licence, and these four are theirs: polypropylene shells on the chrome rod base the Eameses nicknamed the Eiffel Tower.
Light blue, red, black and white, so the set reads as a colour run rather than a matched row. Light enough to move with one hand, and as good at a desk or a kitchen bench as at a dining table. A handsome, hard-working set.
The shell does the whole job — no padding, no adjustment, nothing to reupholster. Seventy years on, most chairs still haven't managed it.
Photographed honestly, in natural light, exactly as it is. No surprises when your new favourite thing arrives.
Everything we sell is 100% authentic. No reproductions, no replicas.
PS. We ship worldwide. For delivery outside Australia, contact us and we'll come back within a day with the best way to get your new favourite piece to you.
