The Eames leather and wood armchair, inspired by the original design of the Lounge Chair by American designer, Charles Eames. Created as a lounge chair for a director friend, it soon became the most loved and desired chaise longue for classy living rooms. The armchair is still recognised today as one of the symbols of comfort and home design, as well as being an iconic piece of timeless elegance. The base is swivel, the seat is upholstered and covered in leather or fabric, while the shell is made of curved plywood and manually treated with a wax finish. The backrest is very soft thanks to the padding, while offering the right amount of support thanks to the wooden structure. This armchair is a replica made in an Italian craft workshop specialising in metal and leather work.

Information for your Purchase
On the fixed base version, the seat and backrest are not adjustable.
On the wheeled base version, there is a lever on the frame, immediately below the shell, which allows the adjustment of both the height of the seat (by pushing the lever up or down) and the inclination of the backrest (by pushing the lever inwards the backrest remains in a straight position, by pushing the lever outwards the backrest becomes tilted). Also on the frame, immediately below the shell, is a knob with which to adjust the rigidity of the backrest.
