The fundamental design of this dining chair was the winning entry in the 1948 New York Museum of Modern Art’s international ‘low cost furniture design competition’. In creating the design, Eames made effective use of groundbreaking processes and new materials. In the 1950’s it went on to be the first mass produced plastic chair and remains to this day an iconic piece that defines an era yet still remains timeless.
Our high quality reproduction Eames DKR chair closely respects the original specifications in terms of materials, build quality, design attributes and dimensions.
The chair features an ergonomically molded cross-weaved chromed-wire shell (or bucket) seat with a black or white leather seat pad. It has a high, flexible back and deep seat pocket which conforms to the contours of the body. The waterfall seat edge sustains comfort for lengthy durations by reducing pressure on the back of the thighs, making it perfect for long dinner parties and engaging conversation.
Constructed from heat treated chrome wire, it is durable enough to withstand considerable punishment in the form of day to day knocks and bangs. This makes it an ideal family chair where kids and teenagers are concerned.
The legs are fitted with 4 ‘feet glides’ to ensure effortlessly movement over and protection of all floor surfaces.
The DKR is also known as the ‘Eiffel’ chair due to its distinctive base and supporting structure which resembles the Eiffel Tower. It doesn’t just look well as a dining chair either. It is equally at home behind a desk, in a bedroom, study or anywhere else in the home or office you may care to think of.
