Aluminium Chair by Eames
The aluminum chair of the designer couple Charles & Ray Eames is one of the most important furniture designs of the 20. century!
For five decades now, the iconographic design of the Aluminium Chair has lent its modern elegance to spaces around the world. The chairs are equally popular with leading personalities from culture, politics, business and entertainment.
A characteristic feature of the Aluminium Chair is the intelligent combination of materials. The upholstery is fixed and freely tensioned in the lateral aluminum profiles. This means that the cover is not a shell, but becomes a load-bearing part of the construction. It adapts to the body and offers a high level of comfort, even without elaborate upholstery. In contrast to the other products of Aluminium Group , the EA 117 and EA 119 chairs have castors on the feet.
Vitra has been producing the aluminum chair program in unchanged high quality for decades. The 119 Aluminum Chair is available in other colors and with polished frame.
