Vitra Eames Lounge Chair&Ottoman, Classic Size, Palisander – Black

The iconic Eames Lounge Chair, designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1956, is a modern version of a traditional English club chair. A perfect pair for the Lounge Chair is the Lounge Ottoman, which shares the same flowing design as the iconic chair.

Manufactured by the Swiss Vitra, Eames Lounge Chair consists of a metal swivel base, form pressed plywood with a veneer surface and cushions upholstered with leather. The Eameses wanted to create an amply lounge chair combining ergonomics with top-quality materials and craftsmanship. It took several years to develop a perfect lounge chair that would differ from a convenient club chair with a lighter, more elegant design and unbeatable comfortability. Vitra’s Lounge Chair and Ottoman are timeless design classics of the 20th century. 

Both the chair and the ottoman are upholstered in Leather Premium F, a high-quality semi-aniline leather tanned with eco-friendly olive leaf extract. The tanning agent is obtained as a waste product from olive harvesting. Please note that the Eames Lounge Chair is available in two sizes: with the original, classic dimensions and with new, larger dimensions – this chair is of the classic size.
