Alu Chair by Charles & Ray Eames for Herman Miller
Alu Chair by Charles & Ray Eames for Herman Miller
The Aluminium Chair is one of the great furniture designs of the twentieth century.
Charles and Ray Eames conceived and developed this chair in 1958 for the private residence of the industrialist J. Irwin Miller.
For the construction of the chair, the designer couple departed from the principle of the seat shell, instead stretching a panel of fabric or leather between two aluminium side members to create a taut but elastic seat.
The chair adapts to the body of the sitter and is exceedingly comfortable, even without elaborate upholstery.
This great chair in white imitation leather is very comfortable.
It is in good vintage condition. With normal signs of age and use.
There are oxidation spots on the chromed aluminium base.
The imitation leather is still in good condition.
