Eames Molded Dining Chairs with Wire Bases (Eiffel Chairs) x 4 / DWR

C’est chic, c’est magnifique, c’est Eames. What do you get when you marry the romance of fin-de-siècle Paris with the clean, clever ingenuity of Charles and Ray Eames? Our answer: this quarter of authentic Herman Miller DSR wire-base chairs, better known as “Eiffel” chairs due to their distinctive geometric wire base, whose intersecting rods recall the sculptural lattice of the Eiffel Tower. Managing to feel architectural, playful and effortlessly sophisticated all at once, this is one of the most recognizable designs from the Eameses’ groundbreaking molded-chair program of the 1950s and has a permanent place in the MOMA design collection. This matching set of 4—all featuring a white molded plastic shell (in a a beautifully subtle matte texture) on a sexy, sleek, polished chrome wire base—was manufactured by Herman Miller in 2022 and remains in pristine, near mint condition. Made in the USA. This exact configuration currently retails for $605 per chair plus shipping and tax—a total price of $725 each. We have 2 chairs left. Asking for $295 each or $550 for the pair. Thank you for looking. Please see below for additional information and feel free to ask any questions. AUTHENTICITY, CONDITION AND ADDITIONAL INFO — Fully authentic Herman Miller productions, each with an impressed stamp (molded into the underside of the plastic seat) featuring the Herman Miller and Eames Office logos and an Eames signature facsimile, as well as a paper label with factory identification markings, including the product code (DSR.47ZFE8), production date (February 21, 2022), and unique barcode, order and production numbers. — Pristine condition. The white seats (injection-molded batch-dyed shells made with post-industrial recycled plastic) remain clean and smooth; the chrome-plated steel bases remain shimmering and rust free; and the leveling black rubber floor glides have additional white cushions affixed underneath them to protect your floors even better. — The DSR (short for Dining (D) height, Side (S) chair, Rod (R) base) is a particularly elegant example of Charles and Ray Eames’ philosophy of doing more with less. The molded shell provides the essential form, while the delicate-looking wire base supplies the structure without visually weighing the chair down. The nickname “Eiffel Chair” is an especially fitting nickname for a chair that sits somewhere between furniture and architectural sculpture. And while the reference is unmistakably French, the chair itself is a quintessential piece of American modernism—designed by Charles and Ray Eames and produced by Herman Miller in the USA. — See the s below for the exact specifications on the Design Within Reach website and for the design history of the DSR: https://www.dwr.com/kitchen-dining-chairs-benches/eames-molded-plastic-side-chair/100366114.html https://eames.com/en/dsr # MidCenturyModern #MCM #ModernFurniture #DesignerFurniture #HermanMiller #Eames #CharlesEames #RayEames #EamesChair #EiffelChair #DSR #EamesDSR #EamesPlasticChair #ModernistFurniture #AuthenticEames #AmericanModernism #MidCentury #VintageFurniture #CollectibleDesign #DesignIcon #IndustrialDesign #ModernDesign #DWR #DesignWithinReach #Knoll #FlorenceKnoll #HarryBertoia #Noguchi #Saarinen #Nelson #Platner #PaulMcCobb #PierrePaulin #LeCorbusier #Cassina #Vitra #FinnJuhl #HansWegner #PoulKjaerholm #JensRisom #JeanProuve #DanishModern #ScandinavianModern #RetroFurniture #ModernDiningChair #DiningChair #SideChair #FurnitureCollector
