Product Story

Epitomising the playful, functionality of mid-century American design, the DSW Chair by Charles and Ray Eames feels as fresh today as when it was first introduced over 60 years ago.

A wonderfully crafted, and fully licensed edition by Vitra, this reproduction adheres strictly to the Eames original design.

  • Based on the original 1950 design by Charles and Ray Eames.

  • A mix of plastic and wood lends the classic design a certain warmth and casual appeal.

  • Modern construction made from environmentally friendly materials.
