This chair is also listed locally at several stores locally on consignment do do not miss out on this great deal. I am a professional leather craftsman and you are looking at a genuine Eames Lounge chair and ottoman with NEW leather! This is an amazing piece of useable art in my opinion. I made new cushion covers out of full grain nappa leather in beautiful dark chockolate brown that contrasts perfectly with the ligh...ter walnut shell. You will not find leather like this even from Herman Miller especially at this price. Beware the original leather it is thin and can actually tare! I have pictures from my build to prove it. I own a couple high end replicas in my shop and the leather on those is better than the real deal from Herman Miller. What you will receive is heirloom quality What I used is superior to everything out there. I also took the liberty to re-make the ABS plastic cushion bases to replace the old original cracked ones. I re-invisioned how the covers attach to the plastic bases using high strength Velcro making the cushions easier to service. I will include 2 extra buttons with this auction. This is a chair that fits practically anywhere in your home, from the living room to the office, and in Charles' words, functions as “a special refuge from the strains of modern living.”The most important aspect of the Eames Lounge Chair is undoubtedly how comfortable it is. The designers wanted the chair to have “the warm, receptive look of a well-used first baseman's mitt, ” and in this regard the chair's aesthetic of comfort differed from the prevailing Spartan look of other modernist furniture of that era and still sets it apart today. Some of the chair's distinctive features include:Flexing headrest and backrest7-layer plywood frame/shell with shimmering figured walnut veneer6-in. thick urethane foam Cushions upholstered with BRAN NEW LEATHER AND PLASTIC CUSHION BASES Die-cast aluminum back/bottom supports, die-cast aluminum swivel baseThe timeless look of the Eames Lounge chair has earned it a spot in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and it makes a distinctive, luxurious addition to your home and officee style with functionality you need.
