Eames LCW Chair
Charles and Ray Eames, 1946

In the early 1940s, after working all day on MGM set designs, Charles Eames returned to his small L.A. apartment with his wife, Ray. Together the two designers worked through their evenings, using thin sheets of veneer and a bicycle-pump compressor to experiment with wood-molding techniques. The technology they developed during those late hours made their revolutionary furniture designs possible, including this modest chair that Time magazine recently named the Best Design of the 20th Century. The contours of its low and casual form cradle the human body more comfortably than one would imagine can be done by a wooden chair. This licensed version by Herman Miller®, the original manufacturer, is made of five-ply hardwood with eight-ply legs. Available in an ash veneer with a red finish or black finish, a natural ash veneer, or a natural walnut clear coat veneer.
