Eames Lemon Yellow Zenith Rope-Edge, RAR Rocker by Herman Miller

About the Item

The first fiberglass Eames chairs were produced by Zenith Plastics. The early Zenith shells are distinctive for their high fiber content and larger, more substantial rubber shock mounts, a translucent quality and an embedded rope at the edge of the fiberglass seat. RAR was the designation given chairs with the rocking base. An icon of Mid-Century design, this rocker is all original and has all of the most desirable features: the lemon yellow shell has the rope edge and Zenith label, the black wire base has runners with a beautiful patina.
