The basis of all Vitra's Eames Plastic Chair collection, the Fiberglass chair is a true icon. Available in all nine original colours, the chair is simplicity defined, with a moulded fiberglass shell united with a delicate yet robust maple base, combining structural strength with visual lightness. The clearly visible fibres give an eye-catching texture, reflecting light in random, glistening patterns. Invest in a piece of design history. This chair is part of the Eames collection of shell chairs.
American husband and wife design duo Charles and Ray Eames have had a profound influence on the visual character of American life, producing original work within the fields of architecture, furniture design, industrial design, manufacturing and the photographic arts.
The Eames’ first partnered with Vitra in 1957 to produce some of the most iconic pieces of furniture in the history of interior design. Today Vitra continues to reflect their philosophy on design and functionality, best understood through Charles’ own words: “Recognising the need is the primary condition for the design”.
