Design Year: 1946.
Designers Charles and Ray Eames established their long and legendary relationship with Herman Miller in 1946 with this boldly original molded plywood lounge chair featuring wooden legs. Since then, the aesthetic integrity, enduring charm, and comfort of the lounge and its counterpart dining chair have earned them recognition as the best of modern design.
To help celebrate the 100th anniversary of Charles Eames' birth, the chairs are now available in richly grained birch veneer, like the original. A series of new colors refreshes the palette and recalls the times when the chairs were introduced. Shown at left in "Red Stain". Select from 13 colors, including re-introduced Red and Ebony painted versions.

A chair that looked like a potato chip. Another that resembled a "well-used first baseman's mitt." A folding screen that rippled...
With a grand sense of adventure, Charles and Ray Eames turned their curiosity and boundless enthusiasm into creations that established them as a truly great husband-and-wife design team. Their unique synergy led to a whole new look in furniture. Lean and modern. Playful and functional. Sleek, sophisticated, and beautifully simple. That was and is the "Eames look."
That look and their relationship with Herman Miller started with molded plywood chairs in the late 1940s and includes the world-renowned Eames lounge chair, now in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Molding thin sheets of lightweight veneer into gently curved shapes gives the hard material of this chair a soft, inviting appearance. The Molded Plywood Lounge Chair with Wood Legs is now offered with birch veneer in seven new finish colors. These environmentally friendly aniline stains allow the wood's natural characteristics to show through. Cherry, Walnut, or Natural Ash choices continue to be available. And, for a limited time, Ebony and Red painted versions have been re-introduced.
The natural contours of the five-ply seat and back are designed to comfortably fit the body. Includes shock mounts made of resilient natural rubber to absorb movement.

beautiful lounge chair

wonderful classic
The chair is a classic and looks beautiful anywhere. it's sturdy, yet bouncy just as it should be. I got it in red stain for my living room and it is a perfect addition. The red is more orange-red and it very vibrant under artificial lighting. overall a great purchase. i'll keep this chair forever.
