Very First Generation 1956 Eames Lounge Chair 670 and Spinning Ottoman 671
-
Description
This extremely rare collectible is one of the earliest known productions of the 1956 Eames lounge chair with ottoman, non-stamped frame, and the holy grail spinning ottoman.
In classic black and rosewood lacquered shell, this piece has been professionally restored by and includes all the original details: -three screw armrests -down feather filled cushions -special sized dome of silence -non-numbered back -underneath the seat, rectangle foil tag (not the round medallion), and the most important "design flaw": the spinning ottoman.
Only the first few Eames chairs built had a swiveling ottoman. Eames worried a spinning ottoman may be dangerous for children so it was quickly discontinued within the first few chairs. A spinning ottoman with a bronze bushing and boot glides is the stuff of Eames Lounge chair legends.
This is a true collector's item. -
