Eames Chair

With its coordinating ottoman, the original 1956 Eames chair remains one of the most iconic and recognizable pieces of furniture ever. Vintage Eames chairs, designed by Charles and Ray Eames and created for Herman Miller furniture company, have an elegant style and a feel of mid-century modernity due to their grained wood and high-quality leather upholstery. About half a century ago, the first plywood-and-leather ottoman set appeared, and it brought a familiar yet futuristic flair to the classic English club chair. Through the development of mass production techniques, the Eames couple made significant contributions to the democratization of furniture design. They became famous in the 1950s for their molded fiberglass chairs, which featured sculptural shapes that fit the period's modernist leanings. One-piece plastic with a completely exposed surface was developed as an inexpensive, commercially viable design focused on cost-effectiveness and ease of mass production. Besides being available in various colors, it is also available in armless or armed models with a variety of bases. These Eames molded plastic chairs have multiple functions, serving as dining chairs, desk chairs, or simple accent chairs as well. As a modern reinterpretation of the 19th-century club chair, Charles and Ray's design has lasted for decades and evolved into a major furniture design — iconic and timeless. It is as beautiful as it is comfortable, and it will last for generations to come. 

A set of Eames Lounge Chairs and Ottomans was designed to provide a more luxurious seating experience. As their first high-end design, it made a global sensation. Featuring its unique reclined position, superb pivoting, generous padding, and contouring that adapts to everyone, the Lounge Chair, also called the 670, provides real luxury and long-lasting comfort. There are many complex components to the construction of the Eames lounge chair. The Eames Office's first 'expensive' article was made up of 20 major components, which was a departure from inexpensive commercial fiberglass furniture. Since its introduction, the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman have remained popular for decades, as well as fashion trends and furnishings over the years. There is a built-in swivel mechanism on each of the chair's five-pointed die-cast aluminum bases. A four-pointed base is found on the matching ottomans. Natural rubber shock mounts and stainless-steel glides combine to provide a durable and flexible system. The chair is widely recognized as a classic piece of modern furniture and remains a benchmark for lounge chairs to this day.

Almost every design produced by the office of Charles and Ray Eames has become a favorite and collectible piece. A few of the most notable pieces are La Chaise, designed for cost-effective furniture design, Molded Fiberglass Chairs, Lounge Chair & Ottoman, Aluminum Group Office Chairs, and Eames Storage Unit, with pieces produced both by Herman Miller and Vitra. Here at Bidsquare, you can find a wide variety of used and vintage Eames chairs for sale. Our selection includes a range of authentic retro Eames furniture, including chairs made of molded fiberglass and Eames loungers.
