Product description
A spectacular vintage mid-century modern executive desk or conference chair, built in the precise manner of the 1969 Soft Pad Group (EA 208 model) by Charles and Ray Eames.
This premium vintage chair is heavily attributed to the licensed Italian manufacturer ICF (Industrie Carnovali Friuli), showcasing the exceptionally high-end engineering characteristic of their 1970s/1980s European productions. It features a stunning, sculptural 4-star cruciform "universal" swivel base —a highly sought-after, architectural detail that is vastly superior to modern 5-star wheeled replicas.
The chair is beautifully upholstered in high-quality genuine white leather across three plush, horizontally stitched comfort cushions. The cast structural frame, side rails, and armrests are crafted from solid metal with a polished chrome-plated finish.
**Condition & Brand Details:**
* **Authenticity:** No maker's marks or paper labels remain, so it is strictly listed as "Attributed to" the style of Eames / ICF Italy to remain completely transparent. The industrial build quality, tensioned rear spreader bar assembly, and frame geometry strongly align with genuine early production standards.
* **Upholstery:** Genuine white leather is clean, supple, and in great vintage shape with no rips, deep stains, or punctures.
* **Frame:** The swivel mechanism rotates smoothly. The polished frame and armrests show some light surface patina and minor cosmetic character marks from age and daily use, which is reflected in the asking price.
**Specifications:**
* **Style:** Mid-Century Modern / Soft Pad Group
* **Upholstery Material:** Genuine Leather (White)
* **Base Details:** 4-star cruciform swivel base
