Description from the seller
The quintessential office chair
EA219 model by Charles & Ray Eames
This EA 219 swiveling director's chair, authentic and branded ICF for Herman Miller, is in excellent condition.
It features a high back, a chrome frame, and a soft black leather upholstery.
The five-star base with casters ensures optimal comfort.
Designed by the renowned designers Charles and Ray Eames, the chair was produced by the American company Herman Miller.
Until the 1980s, Herman Miller licensed the distribution and production of its furniture in Europe, with Vitra, a Swiss company, and ICF, an Italian company, as the main holders.
After the 1980s, the license remained exclusively with Vitra, making earlier productions an exclusive vintage piece of furniture like the one for sale.
Normal signs of wear with some small blemishes on the outer sides of the black leather
While the cushions and leather are in excellent condition
The only notable defect is that the lever to raise and lower the seat is missing.
At the moment it is at the standard base height.
A replacement part can eventually be found and installed.
Nevertheless, we are talking about one of the iconic design office chair classics.
This model, now in production by Vitra, lists at over 5k in this configuration.
If shipping is needed, it will be carefully packaged.
