A Most Rapturous Reception

Widely acknowledged as one of the most important and influential designs of the 20th Century, the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman effortlessly ooze status, style and laid-back comfort. Correctly titled the Eames Lounge (671) and Ottoman (672), this ultra-stylish and exceptionally comfortable furniture set was introduced to a rapturous reception in 1956 after undergoing years of design and development by Charles and Ray Eames. It has been in production ever since by Hermann Miller with whom the Eameses closely collaborated. Indeed, a truly enduring testament to its iconic stature.

The New York Museum of Modern Art sealed the reputation of the Eames Lounge Chair & Ottoman as the most iconic of all modern chair sets by installing them as part of the museums permanent collection. The pair have also been on permanent display for decades at the Art Institute of Chicago.

The Eames Lounge Chair (Eames Lounger) made its debut public appearance on the Arlene Francis ‘Home’ show aired on the NBC network in 1956. Since then it has continued to feature on both television and film, gracing the apartment of Frazier Crane in the popular sitcom Frazier and starring in numerous films and commercials.

Style, Quality & Value Without Compromise

The Real WOW Factor

The Eames Lounge Chair attains the very difficult aim of unifying the trinity of function, form and style. This alone represents a remarkable achievement that one so rarely witnesses in most high design efforts. Put another way, this creation is comfortable, well built and highly attractive. It has that certain something which endears and which people gravitate towards. In short, it had the ‘WOW’ factor before the term ever even entered common parlance.

Reasons For Admiration and Acquisition

There are several reasons why people the world over find the Eames Lounger so appealing. Here are but a few:

It has earned its place in the lexicon of style as a truly engaging and enduring piece of furniture, otherwise it would not have remained in production (for over 50 years) ever since it was first introduced. To discover more, read the rest of this page...

Understated Cool & Seduction

Perhaps above all, the Eames Lounger can be said to be the ultimate statement of understated ‘cool’ and seductive comfort. Eames himself said that he wanted to create a refuge from the strains and stresses of modern life. He also said he wanted the chair to “resemble the warmth, familiarity and comfort of a well worn baseball mitt.” He certainly succeeded.

This is why the Lounge Chair occupies so many illustrious living rooms, libraries, studies, lounges and offices. The only question you now have to ask yourself is where will you proudly situate this iconic classic in your home or office?

Own a Piece of Iconic Design History

You can now own a piece of iconic design history for approximately a quarter of the cost of an original, yet, you would be very hard pressed to tell the difference. Even on close inspection, our Eames Inspired Lounge Chair bridges the divide because it so closely embraces the original design specifications, as per the following:

Our high quality reproduction Eames Lounge Chair is constructed of three curved plywood shells made from a series of moulded wood veneer layers. Thick soft cushioning, covered in premium quality Italian leather is added to the underlying wooden substrate to give the chair its sumptuous upholstery. This combination of rich veneer and supple Italian leather enthuse old-fashioned luxury and modern form, which have set an enduring benchmark for comfort and elegance that remains unsurpassed.

The black base is solid metal with polished stainless steel top. The Eames Inspired Lounger is a swivel chair. It was not designed to tilt but is permanently reclined at an angle of natural repose in order to distribute body weight towards the rear of the chair for maximum comfort.
