Story
The Eames
lounge chair and ottoman is
the culmination of Charles
and Ray Eames' efforts to
create comfortable and handsome
lounge seating by using production
techniques that combine technology
and handcraftsmanship. Its
heritage goes back to the
molded plywood chairs pioneered
by the Eameses in the 1940s,
and it's part of the permanent
collection of New York's Museum
of Modern Art.
Charles Eames
said his goal for the chair
was the "warm, receptive
look of a well-used first
baseman's mitt." Every
one is a special refuge from
the strains of modern living.
The first
lounge chair and ottoman,
produced in 1956, was a birthday
gift for friend Billy Wilder,
the Academy Award-winning
film director, and it made
its public debut on the Today
show. Every lounge chair and
ottoman manufactured since
then has received the same
meticulous handcrafted attention.
