Charles & Ray Eames, 1948

 

The Eames designed La Chaise in 1948 for a competition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, inspired by "Floating Figure", a sculpture by Gaston Lachaise. It is the unbelievable elegance of this assertive seating sculpture that enables any number of sitting and reclining positions, which is so very appealing. It has long since established itself as an icon of Organic Design. Materials: two bonded fiberglass shells, chromed rod base with natural oak cruciform foot. 

 

59"W x 34.25"H x 35.5" base width x 15.25" seat ht.
