A true icon of modern design, the Eames Lounge Chair stood apart from its contemporaries at the time for its lightness and elegance. Now reissued by Vitra in a natural European Cherry veneer, its warm tone and expressive grain lend a fresh, organic edge. Finished with luxurious Vitra leather upholstery, the Eames is a timeless piece that makes a statement in any classic or modern interior.
American husband and wife design duo Charles and Ray Eames have had a profound influence on the visual character of American life, producing original work within the fields of architecture, furniture design, industrial design, manufacturing and the photographic arts.
The Eames’ first partnered with Vitra in 1957 to produce some of the most iconic pieces of furniture in the history of interior design. Today Vitra continues to reflect their philosophy on design and functionality, best understood through Charles’ own words: “Recognising the need is the primary condition for the design”.
