A landmark design from Charles and Ray Eames, the molded plastic chairs consist of clean, simple forms sculpted to cradle the body. The Eameses adapted molding techniques developed during World War II to produce this classic design - the first industrially manufactured plastic chairs. Today's chairs are true to the originals, with updated, eco-friendly materials. Their enduring forms and quality construction make them comfortable, durable performers.

This chair has a single-piece shell with waterfall edges and molded back, seat and arms. Base options include a wire base, 4-leg base, or a dowel-leg base. The dowel-leg base has maple legs with non-adjustable nylon glides.
