Product description
This is an authentic Eames Plastic Armchair RAR (Rocking Armchair Rod Base), produced by the esteemed manufacturer Vitra. Designed by the pioneering American duo Charles and Ray Eames, this piece is a celebrated icon of mid-century modern design, renowned for its groundbreaking use of materials and organically shaped shell.
The chair features a durable, single-piece seat shell crafted from white polypropylene, which offers comfort through its flexible backrest. This shell is mounted on the distinctive 'Eiffel Tower' base, constructed from chrome-plated steel wire for a graphic and lightweight appearance. The base is completed with solid wood rockers in a light, natural finish, providing a gentle, soothing motion. Produced in 2006, this example represents Vitra's commitment to the original design's integrity and quality.
This piece has been well-maintained and remains in excellent condition, showcasing the enduring quality of its materials and construction. The surfaces are clean and the structure is sound, reflecting careful ownership over the years. The combination of materials has developed a subtle character consistent with its age, without compromising its aesthetic appeal.
The versatile design of the RAR makes it a fitting addition to a wide range of interior styles, from minimalist and Scandinavian to contemporary family homes. It serves equally well as a statement piece in a living room, a comfortable seat in a nursery, or a relaxing chair in a reading corner.
