Eames Lounge Chair 670 & Ottoman 671 – White Leather & Rosewood Herman Miller

An iconic piece of 20th-century design, this superb Lounge Chair model 670 and its ottoman model 671, a masterful creation by Charles and Ray Eames, is produced by Herman Miller – the label authenticating the piece is clearly visible under the seat shell. The structural shells are made of Santos rosewood veneer with spectacular grain, playing between deep brown and warm honey highlights, with a high-gloss finish that enhances every vein of the wood. The ivory white leather upholstery, tufted and accented with buttons, elegantly dresses the three cushions of the chair (seat, backrest, and headrest) as well as the top of the ottoman, offering enveloping comfort and a striking contrast with the warmth of the wood. The five-star base in black lacquered aluminum and the chrome connectors complete the whole with a formal rigor characteristic of the Eames style, with no visible scratches. The set is in remarkable condition, nearly new: no visible wear on the leather, no alteration of the veneer. A rarity for such an iconic duo. Chair dimensions: H. 84.5 cm × W. 85 cm × D. 84 cm – Weight: 34.9 kg. A prestigious acquisition for any lover of American design from the 1950s.
