About:
Charles and Ray Eames were a design couple whose personal and professional collaboration lead to the creation of some of the 20th century’s most recognised furniture and accessories.
They designed this shell chair in 1948.
In 1953, the founders of the Swiss company VITRA, the couple Erika and Willi Fehlbaum, saw the Eames chair in a shop window, on a trip to United Stated in 1953. They were so enthusiastic about it so they contacted Herman Miller. And in 1957, VITRA signed an official agreement with Herman Miller.
This granted Vitra the exclusive rights to manufacture and sell Eames designs in Europe and the Middle East
In the late 1980s, Ray Eames and Herman Miller, had some concerns about the long term effects of fiberglass in the environment. They decided to stop production of this chair.
In 2004, the Eames Side Chair were brought back to life when they were reintroduced in a 100% recyclable polypropylene.
These chairs are dissambled and packed neatly.

Seller's Story
Beeing a trusted seller on Catawiki for almost 7 years. And with more than 10.000 successful sales. This is my full-time job and I don't sell anywhere else but here on Catawiki, and I don't have a physical store that takes my time, I put all my work and time here on Catawiki..
Many of my lamps are purchased leftovers from various stores and manufacturers, I prefer to buy lamps that have been retired from production and are soon sold out on the market.
I am satisfied by making my customers happy. I am so grateful for all the feedback.
