Charles Eames’ brilliantly designed Lounge Chair and Ottoman is the epitome of all that is comfortable (and luxurious) in an easy chair.
Our version of the lounge chair matches the original design built in 1956 for Herman Miller.
In the process, we improved on the weak points of the original, creating a lounge chair that surpasses the original in quality. Plagiarism is definitely not a part of our vocabulary!
There is nothing more embarrassing than a poor copy!
Our reproduction of the Eames Lounge chair means that you will get a piece of furniture that not only looks like the design it was based on, but also feels like the real deal.
We are paying attention to the details
Leather fit for gloves
Charles Eames wanted his lounge chair to be as inviting as a well-worn baseball mitt.
That is why we have chosen to cover our version of this classic lounge chair with glove-soft, vat-tanned anilin leather. The leather’s natural grain is silky-smooth and drapes over the upholstery in soft folds.
Conscientiously selected tropical wood
In our eyes, the pronounced grain of the original rosewood veneer perfectly complements the lounge chair.
You can have a clear conscience when you select our Santos rosewood, which comes closest to the redwood used in the original. Fast-growing rosewood is cultivated in Bolivia and Brazil under the most stringent conditions.
Relax in style
The cushions are filled with several layers of foam and Dacron batting. This gives the upholstery of our lounge chair a more luxurious, decorative look.
Our lounge chair really is as comfortable as it appears.
Made from a single mold
True to the original, the legs of our lounge chair were made to match Herman Miller’s original. The top surface of the black lacquered die-cast T profile aluminium is polished to a high-gloss finish.
Adjustable stainless steel feet allow you to quickly adjust your chair to uneven surfaces.
Sturdy construction
One of the weak points in the original design is the swivel connection between the seat shell and the base. That is why we have chosen to reinforce this mounting with solid brass bushings. The stability of our assembly means that your lounge chair won’t wobble, even after several years.
Two layers are better than one
We also thought we’d tackle another weak point in the original design, the shock mounts.
Our shock mounts, which connect the seat and the back rest, are not only glued, but as well screwed into the wood. Using a slightly thicker grade of plywood means we can fasten the mounts with 10 little screws.
This connection has given way in many older versions of the lounge chair.
