Description from the seller

Designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1958, the EA 208 Soft Pad is a classic example of how this world-renowned husband-and-wife team combined innovation, vision, and new manufacturing methods to create furniture that is modern, functional, beautiful, and original.
The aluminum chair EA 208 Soft Pad is simply a triumph of style and technology: invest in a piece of design history.
This cognac leather armchair dates from 1960; the swivel mechanism turns smoothly; the upholstery is intact; from the first edition.
Herman Miller, made in Michigan, with the brand stamped into the frame; the feet are the damped first-series version, very rare.
