Eames Aluminum Group High-Back Executive Chair - Blue Leather
Charles & Ray Eames for Herman Miller
A timeless and highly sought-after design by Charles & Ray Eames, this Aluminum Group High-Back Executive Chair embodies the perfect balance of elegance, comfort, and functionality. Originally introduced in 1958, it remains one of the most iconic modern office chairs ever created.
Upholstered in rich deep blue leather with signature horizontal ribbing, the chair is framed by polished aluminum arms and side supports, creating a clean and architectural silhouette. The classic “sitting pocket” construction allows the upholstery to gently flex with the body, providing natural ergonomic comfort without excess bulk.
This example features a manual tilt mechanism with tension control, smooth swivel, and manual height adjustment (non-pneumatic). It sits on a polished five-star aluminum base with casters for easy mobility.
A sophisticated and versatile piece—ideal for office, conference, or home use.
