Vintage Style Icons: Eames Fiberglass Shell Chair

 Last week we discussed investing in vintage pieces as a way to minimize your carbon footprint and maximize your home’s style. This week we’re sharing another of our favorite vintage finds: The Eames Fiberglass Shell Chair.

Charles and Ray Eames dominated the stage of 20^th Century design. With their keen eye for form and their skill for innovation, 50 years later their designs still endure as leaders of modern furniture.

While today many of the Eames’ designs serve as symbols of modern luxury, the Shell Chair was originally conceived as an entry for the International Competition for Low Cost Furniture Design. The competition sought to draw focus to the “design and production of good, inexpensive, and attractive furniture.” [via Eames Foundation]  Eames use of fiberglass created a chair that is nearly indestructible while being lightweight and soft to the touch. The simple silhouette holds a beautiful curve that fits any body type, and an interchangeable base allows the chair to fit any room.

Take advantage of our Semi Annual Sample Sale by taking home a Shell Chair with a Swivel Base. Six available with original manufacturing tag dated 1972. Floor samples pictured below. Call 412.441.8888 for pricing.
