Eames Chair

Love this EAMES chair in white!

This luxury item was inspired by the traditional English Club Chair.
The chair is composed of three curved plywood shells: the headrest, the backrest and the seat. In early production, beginning in 1956 and running through the very early 1990s, the shells were made up of five thin layers of plywood which were covered by a veneer of Brazilian rosewood. The use of Brazilian rosewood was discontinued in the early 1990s, and current production since then consists of seven layers of plywood covered by finishing veneers of cherry, walnut, and other finishes.
The Eames Lounge Chair and ottoman are furnishings designed by Charles and Ray Eames. They are officially titled Eames Lounge and Ottoman and were released in 1956 after years of development by designers. It was the first chair that the Charles and Ray designed for a high-end market.
