Welcome to the club — Cradling the body’s every curve, the Eames Lounge and Ottoman began as a modern take on a traditional club chair. The result — arguably the most recognizable furniture design of the 20th century — is a seat that you can sink into, now and for decades to come.

Charles and Ray Eames had ideas about making a better world, one in which things were designed to bring greater pleasure to our lives. Their iconic Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman (1956) began with a desire to create a chair with “the warm, receptive look of a well-used first baseman’s mitt.” The result embodies what it really means to lounge. In continuous production since its introduction, this set is widely considered one of the most significant designs of the 20th century. Combining soft, inviting leather or mohair with the sleek form of molded wood, the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman is the culmination of the Eameses’ efforts to create a club chair using the molded plywood technology they pioneered in the ’40s. Even today, each piece is assembled by hand to ensure the highest level of quality and craftsmanship, and you’ll be pleased to discover the set gets even better with use and age. Cushions snap in and can be removed and changed. This is the authentic Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman by Herman Miller.

Available in standard or tall.
Herman Miller and the Eames Office, still run by the Eames family, developed the taller size in response to the fact that the average height of people worldwide has increased about an inch since the chair was designed. The variations in size are subtle to the eye, but for taller individuals, they make the difference between “I love Eames” and “Eames loves me.”

    Looks just as pictured. Comfortable. My parents had the same only in black and this one in cream is just as iconic. Delivery was on time (even called to ask if they could come early!).

    Beautiful work of art! It fits in perfectly with my mid century modern aesthetic. The comfort level is extra. I have a bad back and it supports me in all the right places. Love it!

    I inherited an original Eames Lounge and Ottoman. It is in very good condition. I’ve had it for about 30 years. I am downsizing, and my children are not interested in it.
