Eames Molded Fiberglass Armchair (with Upholstered Pad / Vinyl Cover) – Swivel Contract Base

Eames for Herman Miller – Upholstered Fiberglass Shell Armchair (Swivel Base)

A refined example of the iconic Eames molded shell chair, this upholstered armchair offers a more elevated and comfortable interpretation of the classic design. The sculptural shell is fully upholstered in a vibrant red covering, contrasted by a dark edge trim that highlights its signature silhouette.

Mounted on a four-star aluminum base with casters, this configuration reflects a more grounded and streamlined interpretation of the classic Eames shell chair. The chair does not feature height adjustment or swivel functionality, offering instead a fixed seating position that emphasizes stability and simplicity. The casters provide ease of movement, while the stationary base maintains a clean, architectural presence. This makes it an excellent choice as a side, guest, or accent chair in both residential and professional settings.

This piece retains its original Herman Miller label beneath the seat, confirming authenticity. A versatile and collectible design that works equally well in modern interiors and professional environments.
