About this piece
The 'Eames ‘Aluminum Lounge Chair ’ A name you have heard whispered in hushed tones around the office since 1958. This sleak piece of weaponry designed by Charles and Ray Eames has and always will be, timeless. Here we have three originals, stamped and dating from between 1960 and 1978.
In the first generations of these, the seats were made from Naugahyde, a material similar to vinyl. In the 60's they started to manufacture them with leather. Leather being a more valuable and desirable finish meant that later chairs like these can often be more valuable than the early ones.
The aluminium has been polished and the leather has been cleaned and conditioned.

Design Story
Working from the United States from the 1940s onward, they approached design as a total system rather than isolated objects. Their work blended architecture, furniture, photography, film, and everyday life into one coherent vision.
They are best known for their long collaboration with Herman Miller, which helped bring their ideas into homes and offices worldwide. Together they created pieces that are still instantly recognisable today.
Among their most iconic designs is the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman, a piece that combined plywood shell construction with luxurious comfort and became a global symbol of modern living. Earlier work like the LCW chair explored new ways of shaping wood into ergonomic forms, while their molded plastic chairs, including the DSW, brought accessible modern design into everyday dining rooms.
They also extended their thinking beyond furniture. The Eames House in California, part of the Case Study House program, shows their core philosophy clearly: modular structure, honest materials, and a deep respect for how people actually live.
The Eames legacy is not just a set of famous objects. It is a way of thinking about design as something that should be playful, useful, scalable, and deeply human at the same time.
