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.
