Charles and Ray Eames Seating

American

Charles Eames and Ray Eames were the embodiment of the inventiveness, energy and optimism at the heart of mid-century modern American design, and have been recognized as the most influential designers of the 20th century. The Eameses were lovers of folk craft who had a genius for making highly original chairs, tables, case pieces and other furniture using traditional materials and forms.

As furniture designers, filmmakers, artists, textile and graphic designers and even toy and puzzle makers, the Eameses were a visionary and effective force for the notion that design should be an agent of positive change. They are the happy, ever-curious, ever-adventurous faces of modernism.

Charles Eames (1907–78) studied architecture and industrial design. Ray Eames (née Beatrice Alexandra Kaiser, 1912–88) was an artist, who studied under the Abstract Expressionist painter Hans Hofmann. They met in 1940 at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in suburban Detroit (the legendary institution where Charles also met his frequent collaborator Eero Saarinen and the artist and designer Harry Bertoia) and married the next year.

His technical skills and her artistic flair were wonderfully complementary. They moved to Los Angeles in 1941, where Charles worked on set design for MGM. In the evenings at their apartment, they experimented with molded plywood using a handmade heat-and-pressurization device they called the “Kazam!” machine. The next year, they won a contract from the U.S. Navy for lightweight plywood leg splints for wounded servicemen — vintage Eames splints are coveted collectibles today; more so those that Ray used to make sculptures.

The Navy contract allowed Charles to open a professional studio, and the attention-grabbing plywood furniture the firm produced prompted George Nelson, the director of design of the furniture-maker Herman Miller Inc., to enlist Charles and (by association, if not by contract) Ray in 1946. Some of the first Eames items to emerge from Herman Miller are now classics: the Eames chair, the LCW, or Lounge Chair Wood, and the DCM, or Dining Chair Metal, supported by tubular steel.

The Eameses eagerly embraced new technology and materials, and one of their peculiar talents was to imbue their supremely modern design with references to folk traditions. 

Their Wire chair group of the 1950s, for example, was inspired by basket weaving techniques. The populist notion of “good design for all” drove their molded fiberglass chair series that same decade, and also produced the organic-form, ever-delightful La Chaise. In 1956 the Eames lounge chair and ottoman appeared — the supremely comfortable plywood-base-and-leather-upholstery creation that will likely live in homes as long as there are people with good taste and sense.

Charles Eames once said, “The role of the designer is that of a very good, thoughtful host anticipating the needs of his guests.” For very good collectors and thoughtful interior designers, a piece of design by the Eameses, the closer produced to original conception the better, is almost de rigueur — for its beauty and comfort, and not least as a tribute to the creative legacy and enduring influence of Charles and Ray Eames.

The original Eames furniture for sale on 1stDibs includes chairs, tables, case pieces and other items.

Tandem Sling Armchair by Ray and Charles Eames for Herman Miller, c 1970

By Charles and Ray Eames, Herman Miller

Located in Los Angeles, CA

This single 'Tandem' sling armchair, designed by Charles and Ray Eames for Herman Miller, is part of the iconic modular seating system originally introduced for airports and public spaces in the mid-20th century. The design reflects the Eameses’ ability to combine industrial efficiency with refined modernist aesthetics. The chair features a cast aluminum frame with a sculptural profile, supporting a suspended sling seat and back upholstered in black leatherette. The tailored upholstery is tensioned within the frame, creating a supportive yet flexible seating experience while maintaining a clean, architectural silhouette. Originally conceived as part of a connected beam seating system, this example has been configured as an individual armchair, allowing it to function as a standalone piece in a variety of interior settings. The aluminum frame provides both durability and visual lightness, while the black upholstery offers a timeless and versatile palette. The gently reclined back and integrated armrests contribute to the chair’s comfort, making it well-suited for use as a lounge chair, office chair, side chair, or accent chair. Its industrial origins also lend themselves well to interiors ranging from Mid-Century Modern and Modernist to Industrial and Contemporary environments. The Eames Tandem...

1960s Eames 3474 Time Life Executive Lobby Desk Chair Vitra ES104 Black Leather

By Charles and Ray Eames, Vitra

Located in London, GB

An extremely rare and museum-worthy 1960s model of the Eames Time-Life Desk Chair in lovely vintage condition. Widely considered the most iconic office chair design of the 20th Century, this especially rare version of an outstanding armchair will provide superb quality and comfort and will add a quintessential Mid-Century, 1960s-cool, ‘Mad Men’ aesthetic to any interior. Eames Time-Life Desk Chairs are in high demand for their quality, durability and scarcity, especially in working condition and upholstered in leather, and even more so if they’re one of the oldest, first-generation models from the 1960s, such as this one. What makes this particular chair even more of a special piece is that this model hardly ever comes to market and a recent exhaustive search has found only one other – in a design museum. A real gem, a design collector’s delight and one of the rarest early versions of one of the most sought-after chairs, this armchair was made 1960-1968 (or 1961-1970 depending on which maker’s website you read) and was produced in Switzerland by Vitra, who have held the European licence for manufacturing Eames furniture since 1957. The only other example we’ve found of this extremely rare European version of this much sought-after design icon is on the Vitra Design Museum’s website itself. This superb chair goes by several names and can be called: the Eames Time Life Desk Chair, the Eames Executive Office Chair, the Eames 3474 (manufactured 1960-1968) or the later ES104 (manufactured 1968-1985). To somewhat further confuse the name, this super chair is similar to, but distinct from its precursor, the Time-Life Lobby Lounge Chair (which was made as a lounge chair specifically for the lobby of the Time Life Building in New York), and so this chair can also sometimes be called an Eames Lobby Chair, or an Eames Lobby Desk Chair. We like to use its correct moniker, the Eames Time Life Lobby Desk Chair or Eames 3474, which was released in 1961 as an adaptation of the slightly shorter, wider, squarer and more angle-backed Eames Time Life Lobby Lounge Chair released in 1960. Expertly made, this extremely comfortable and reassuringly heavy armchair features plush, padded and buttoned black leather cushions to the seat, back and arms, over an aluminium frame set on the 1960s four-star aluminium base. Distinguishing it from the Herman Miller (American licensee) produced 1960s version are the Vitra bolt-handle tilting mechanism and the Vitra black plastic ball feet casters with aluminium hoods, making this particular model an extremely rare (almost never seen outside of the Vitra Design Museum catalogue) version of this already very rare and much sought-after armchair. All in all this is an incredibly rare, museum-worthy 1960s design icon, which won’t fail to add outstanding quality, comfort and quintessential Mid Century style and sophistication to any setting. AUTHENTICITY The labels on these early chairs appear to have been stuck to the underside only and as such, few labels still remain and such is the case with this chair, which no longer has an Eames or Vitra label. However, we’re 100% confident that this is an original 1960s Eames chair...

    Yes, Charles Eames chairs are comfortable. The Eameses — Charles and Ray — were fascinated by ergonomics and designed chairs with comfort in mind. The legendary mid-century modernist designer-couple famously called their Eames lounge chair and ottoman “a special refuge from the strains of modern living” and described their design as having the “warm receptive look of a well-used first baseman’s mitt.”

    While the couple’s DCW chairs, introduced in the 1940s, prioritized ease of production and affordability of materials, the Eames lounger, which debuted in 1956, was Charles and Ray’s interpretation of luxury furniture. And to the Eameses, luxury meant, above all, comfort.
