They were vital in popularizing new materials and techniques for crafting furniture, such as using molded plywood, fiberglass, plastic resin and wire mesh.
This item is not an original Charles & Ray Eames Lounge chair, nor is it manufactured by or affiliated with Herman Miller. Charles Eames and Ray Eames have a legacy for making furniture and were well known architects of their times. They had also worked for Hollywood movies. They had studied architecture in the University of Washington. This architect duo with their archetype ideas and insight created a design philosophy called the banana leaf parable. As per the duo, the banana leaf can transform into something very ornate. Going by this philosophy, they started to create remarkable designs in furniture that were usable and had aesthetic value. This couple created some groundbreaking industrial design and furniture design. Ray Eames was a student of abstract expressionism. The couple started designing plywood and plastic furniture and later exploited the graphic design and fine arts as motifs in furniture design. Eames Lounge chair that is still sold by many retailers online and offline is manufactured using their design philosophy of transforming art into a usable design.
The ottomans and the lounge chairs created by this couple are more than a century old and the design still stand out even in the modern, contemporary world. So, if you cannot afford the authentic Eames Lounge chair, you can go for the Herman Miller version of the Eames lounge chair reproduction. The original Eames lounge chair display comfort amalgamated with robustness and durability. You can get this vintage looks even in the replicas that are offered with discounted prices online. The Herman Miller version uses chrome as a base that stays well even on uneven flooring. So, if your garden or patio has cobblestone path, you can be seated comfortably on this chair on this uneven path. The original design produced by the duo resolves most of the complex engineering problems when it comes to construction and durability of creative and abstract designs. These designs will never go out of fashion as they have the basic design that is built on modern principles of art and design. The armrest of these designs is upholstered.
The specialty of the original design is its shock mounts and the way they are placed to hold the entire chair. You will not find this kind of assemblage in knock off designs. That is what makes the Eames furniture special and durable!What to Look for When Buying an Eames Lounge Chair? Choosing the Right Leather and Wooden Veneers (Read More...)

The Lounge Chair is widely considered one of the most significant designs of the 20th century. It was designed to create a club chair using the molded plywood technology that was pioneered in the '40s. The vision was a chair with the "warm, receptive look of a well-used first baseman's mitt." The result has become the consummate lounge set, timelessly blending old-fashioned comfort and visionary modernism. Pairing soft, inviting leather with the sleek form of molded plywood, the seat is balanced on a five-star, die-cast steel base. 3.7 out of 5 stars 5 star52%4 star20%3 star11%2 star6%1 star11%See all verified purchase reviewsTop Customer ReviewsDecent replica, though not quite the same scale as the original. Don't get this one!UPDATE 2: the seller "Tangkula" offered a $30 rebate and a partial resolution in 30 days ... for a $600 chair that came in damaged and literally broke in half within 3 days ... The base of the chair just snapped when I stood up, scratching the wooden bottom and the metal base.
And I am only 155 lbs. Makes my "is it safe" comment below seem prescient.ORIGINAL REVIEW: I just received the chair, it came in a box marked "Costway" and with part number HW51511. When I called the 800 number for Costway, they had my order in their system, so I am assuming that the seller "Tangkula" I bought it from is actually them (but it could be a reseller / drop-ship situation as well).The shipping box is huge and heavy, it would not fit through my office door, so it will be a pain to return it if that is the resolution.Bottom line, the chair is poorly assembled. The details are below and in the pictures / videos.- Someone wrote the number 105 on the ottoman. I am not sure if I can clean it off. (see photo IMG_4249)- The screw attaching one of the armrest is stripped, so there is a lot of "play" in that armrest.- The moving armrest caused a tear in the leather underneath during transport (see photo IMG_4251)- The base of the chair is loose, it causes the entire chair to rock (see video) Same thing for the ottoman.
And I do not mean a gentle rock "by design", I mean a "is this safe" kind of a wobble when someone sits in it the first time.- The headrest is loosely attached, causing it to move (see video). Again, this is not by design but the result of poor workmanship.If you ignore those issues, the chair itself is not super comfortable. I am 5'10" and if I want head support, I have to slide my butt forward, and then need a lumbar pillow. I don't remember the same issue when I sat in an original version of the chair. The cushion is pretty hard, I don't get the feeling it will mellow with age.The materials used, leather, wood etc, are otherwise ok, what you would expect from corporate furniture in the reception lobby of a not too fancy business. When you start inspecting it closely, you find spots, nicks, and discolorations.So yes, it is 90% less than the original, but it is frustrating that the manufacturing and QC was not better.I contacted Costway yesterday, I have not heard back what they are willing to do, but I am really dreading handling the 80lbs / 33"x33"x30" box down the stairs.
