Designed by Charles and Ray Eames
Elegance in form and technique
The graceful silhouette sits equally well in all kinds of home and workplace interiors.
Outdoor seating comes in
It's uncanny how a chair designed in 1958 as outdoor seating still manages to look both classic and contemporary in twenty-first century interiors. The chairs' clean, trim lines make them appropriate for all kinds of places, from classic and contemporary homes to elegant offices to hip start-ups.

Expansive options
Give this timeless design a high degree of personalization through expansive material choices. Start with the luxurious feel of leather, in contract-grade or premium MCL—a semi-aniline, dyed leather with 100 percent natural full grain. You can also opt for a pairing of MCL Leather cushions with a sling seat/back suspension in a coordinating colorway of Hallingdal, a rich blend of wool and rayon. This subtle contrast in textures gives the design an added dimension of sophistication. Color variations and surface marks are an inherent characteristic of leather, which will acquire wrinkles and creases and develop a rich patina over time.
To complement lighter materials, we offer powder coat finishes on the base and frame, along with traditional polished aluminum. Chairs with the 4-star base come with glides that are easy on any floorcovering, while chairs with a 5-star base have a choice of casters for bare floors or carpeting.
