Product Details

Designed by Charles and Ray Eames
Charles and Ray Eames adapted molding techniques developed during World War II to mass produce this classic design. Available in side and armchair versions, Today's Molded Plastic Chairs are true to the originals and are fully authentic, with updated materials to meet environmental requirements.

Charles and Ray Eames, always interested in new materials, saw in plastic the chance to form organic seat shells that conform to the body’s shape. The enduring forms and quality construction make the Molded Plastic Chairs - available here with a classic Eames wire base - comfortable, durable performers.

Eames DSR - Molded Plastic Side Chair with Wire Base

The Design:

New materials, especially those that held promise for doing more with less, fascinated Charles and Ray Eames throughout their careers. Their fascination led to inventive modern furniture, such as the Molded Plastic Chair. Designed in 1948, it was the first plastic chair to be mass produced.
The current models look exactly the same as the originals. They remain unupholstered, in keeping with the Eameses requirement that materials be expressed honestly and unselfconsciously. In fact, these were the first one-piece plastic chairs to be left uncovered.
At the same time, the chairs are better than ever. For example, the shell is now manufactured using more environmentally friendly, high-impact plastic.

Landmark Design

Will from Colorado	5.0 5/5/2012 Amazing Chairs These chairs are worth the wait and the price. We ordered the wafer color and knew it would take at least a month to get. We have them with a round glass table in our kitchen. They are comfortable, sturdy and the design is beautiful. So pleased with the purchase. Was this helpful? Yes / No

Kelly from Palo Alto, CA	5.0 11/13/2011 Eames molded plastic chairs with eiffel base I purchased 6 of these for a client in Robins Egg and they are great. Color is vibrant, theyre perfect with my clients modern walnut dining table. They arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Was this helpful? Yes / No
liz from Philadelphia, PA	5.0 10/10/2011 Great chairs, and very comfortable Product Review We have these at our kitchen table, so they are in use daily. In addition to being iconic and great looking, the chairs are comfortable, durable, and easy to clean. Service Review customer service from CSN/Wayfair and delivery were flawless. Was this helpful? Yes / No
Ben FrantzDale from Boston, MA	5.0 9/26/2011 Classic for a reason This design is a classic for a reason. Not only does it look good, but for a hard-seated chair they are quite comfortable. Despite being a hard material, back flexes a bit, giving it a softer, conformal feel. Be aware, while these are the official Eames/Herman Miller chairs, they are not quite the original design: these seats are nubbly polyethylene, not glossy fiberglass, and the base is screwed into the shell rather than being screwed to a rubber "shock mount" that is glued to the fiberglass in the original. I'm sure we will get more than our original four in the future, and perhaps some of the stacking version for additional seating. Was this helpful? Yes / No
BTR from New York City	5.0 6/19/2011 Gorgeous Chairs What can you say, they were great! Was this helpful? Yes / No
dc from ATX	4.0 5/22/2011 Good product- [...] very happy with the chair [...] Was this helpful? Yes / No
Jennifer Loves Midcentury Modern from Brooklyn NY	5.0 5/10/2011 Always a classic Product Review I bought this as a desk chair that could transition to dining chairs. I love that when I want to add more to my collection, I know that they will continue to be available. I also have an eames rocker in white, which is a nice compliment to the wire base chairs. Service Review Can't beat the speed of delivery. I guess I'm close to the warehouse, but my chairs arrived in 2 days from placing my order. It takes longer for my netflix to arrive! Was this helpful? Yes / No
