The Eames Lounge Chair – an icon of modern furniture design

Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman by Charles & Ray Eames, lounge chair with upholstered seat shell made of wood veneer and swiveling aluminium frame, iconic design classic

A piece of furniture that made design history


The Eames Lounge Chair by Charles & Ray Eames remains one of the most important icons of modern furniture design. Since its introduction in 1956, it has stood for a new definition of comfort, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance. Inspired by the classic English club chair, the designers wanted to create a piece of furniture that exudes luxury without being rigid—a chair for arriving, relaxing, and staying.

Form, comfort and material in perfect balance


The Eames Lounge Chair is characterized by its curved molded plywood shells, generous upholstery, and harmoniously calibrated reclining angle. Every detail is functionally sophisticated and aesthetically precise. The combination of elegant wood veneer, high-quality leather, and the iconic aluminum base gives the chair its distinctive presence.


The lounge chair is not a short-lived trend, but a piece of furniture that lasts for generations – both visually and in terms of quality.
