Description
Early 3rd Generation Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman in Brazilian Rosewood & Green Leather
A beautifully honest, early 3rd-generation Eames Lounge Chair in Brazilian rosewood and New Moss Green leather—overall this is a well-kept, and showing exactly the kind of gentle life we love to see. Very Dramatic wood grain in all original condition.
Why this example matters
“Early 3rd Gen” is a sweet spot for collectors: it keeps several second-generation details while moving into later production refinements. Key identifiers on this chair include:
Rosewood shells with striking, book-matched grain
Brass bushings at the back supports (retained from Gen 2 before the switch to plastic)
Rectangular cushion clips
Foam & leather upholstery (factory spec for this period)
Original shock mounts functionally sound
Condition
Overall: Excellent vintage condition, fully functional and comfortable.
Leather: Attractive Moss Green Leather.
We can also put this chair in classic Black Leather at no additional cost.
Shells: Rosewood presents with lively figure and depth; edges and finish are clean with light wear.
Hardware / mounts: Solid shock mounts and swivel operate smoothly.
Design notes
The Eames Lounge Chair is the benchmark of American Mid-Century design—comfort engineered like a machine, finished like fine cabinetry. This early 3rd-Gen. example reads warm and architectural: the rosewood chatoyancy lights up under soft daylight, while the tan leather keeps the silhouette relaxed and residential.
Dimensions
Standard Eames Lounge dimensions.
