AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A vintage Charles & Ray Eames fiberglass DSW side chair, produced for the European market by Vitra under the Herman Miller International Collection. The shell dates from approximately the late 1960s to early 1970s, a period in which Vitra manufactured Eames furniture in Europe under licence from Herman Miller.

The white fiberglass shell shows a pronounced and attractive fiber structure, with honest age-related patina and light wear consistent with its age. The chair has been minimally restored with the aim of preserving its original character.

Seller's Story

At VintEAge, my passion lies in the timeless designs of Charles & Ray Eames, particularly their iconic fiberglass shells. I have always been fascinated by their beautiful shapes, rich colours, and unique character. For the past seven years, I have been personally restoring these vintage chairs with great care and enjoyment. Each piece has its own history, and I take pride in bringing it back to life while preserving its originality and authentic charm. For me, it’s more than restoring furniture. It’s about preserving design history and giving these timeless icons a new future.
