Time Life Lobby Chair by Charles and Ray Eames for Herman Miller, USA, 1960s
-
Description
Originally designed in 1960 by Charles and Ray Eames for the reception areas of the Time-Life Building in New York, this chair embodies the refined functionality and bold aesthetics of their early executive designs. With its wide seat, lounge height, and relaxed pitch, it offers exceptional comfort alongside iconic mid-century styling. This early edition features segmented, tufted cushions in newly upholstered Elmo Forest Green leather, paired with leather armrests that rest on the sleek, aerodynamic curves of its metal frame. The chair showcases a striking two-tone construction with black aluminum side supports and a polished aluminum four-star swivel base. It includes a tilt mechanism and adjustable height, making it as practical as it is visually compelling. Cleaned and preserved with light patina, the base and frame can be polished upon request—an elegant and rare piece, ready to elevate any space.
