Description from the seller
Executive Office Chair par excellence
Model EA219 by Charles & Ray Eames
This swiveling director chair EA 219, authentic and branded ICF for Herman Miller, is in excellent condition.
It features a high backrest, a chrome frame, and soft black leather upholstery.
The five-star base, equipped with swivel casters, guarantees optimal comfort.
Designed by the renowned designers Charles and Ray Eames, the chair was manufactured by the American company Herman Miller.
Until the 1980s, Herman Miller licensed the distribution and production of its furniture in Europe, with Swiss company Vitra and Italian company ICF as the main holders.
After the 1980s, the license remained exclusively with Vitra, making the earlier productions an exclusive vintage furniture piece like the one for sale.
Normal signs of wear over time, some small wear on the outer sides of the black leather
While the cushions and leather are in excellent condition
One noted defect: the lever to raise and lower the seat is missing.
Currently it is at the standard base height
Eventually a replacement part can be found and installed
We are nonetheless talking about one of the icons of historic design office chairs
This model, now in production by Vitra, has a list price of over 5k as configured
If shipping is required, it will be carefully packed
