Modern Classic Chairs

It's rather like a movie star, with This 2-piece set is one of the most iconic items of contemporary furniture and still as desirable today as it was back in the 50's. As with all faithful reproductions of classic designer furniture, there is mark of authenticity, indicating that an authorised manufacturer has produced each piece and is legitimately allowed to create and call the chairs they produce an 'Eames'. The Eames Ottoman matches its counterpart meticulously as one would expect, in both shape and size. There is a die cast aluminium frame on shock mounts for flexible movement, a five-arm swivel function base and handy removable upholstery, with thick sumptuous leather covers.

Its seat, backrest shells and armrests are a work of art, produced in smooth curved plywood, finished with a hardwood veneer. A stunning combination of leather and rosewood veneers, this was a magnificent contribution to the prestigious history books of classic designer furniture pieces. The designer pair were well known for their painstaking and pedantic attention to detail. Probably the most well-loved and recognised furniture duo, the Eames Lounge and Ottoman was finally released in 1956 after numerous design re workings.

The couple especially loved experimenting with plywood and would bend and mould this material into beautiful curved shapes, which formed the basis for many of their classic designer furniture creations. Most people would agree that the Eames partnership was a successful and fruitful one, designing some of the most iconic pieces of classic designer furniture not only a partnership in design, but in their personal lives too.
