About the Item

The model 513, or shape "B" walnut stool by Charles and Ray Eames was one of three shapes designed for the lobby of the Time Life building. This design features a pleasing combination of curved and straight lines. The solid walnut forms function equally well as a stool or side table, and the piece has a wonderful sculptural quality and presence in the room. This exceptional example dates to 1965 when it was purchased for the Dekalb, IL public library. It has acquired a beautiful patina from the 6 decades of use. 15"h X 13"d
