Eames Molded Plastic Side Chair – Dining Chairs + Benches
This is an authentic Herman Miller Eames Molded Shell Chair. A simple, beautiful, classic form that looks great in any setting. Recyclable polypropylene shell.
Charles and Ray Eames realized their dream to create a single-shell form over 80 years ago by making their molded chairs of fiberglass. When the environmental risks of that material became known, the Eames Molded Shell Chair (1950) was changed to polypropylene, which is 100% recyclable and has a pleasant matte texture. In 2013, Herman Miller safely brought back the fiberglass shell thanks to a new proprietary production process. Today’s fiberglass chair is made of 99% recyclable materials and covered by Herman Miller’s take-back program for environmentally sound recycling. Plus, it’s true to the original with its beloved variegated surface. Also making its debut in 2013 was the stunning Eames Molded Wood Chair, a longtime dream of the Eameses finally made possible by today’s revolutionary 3-D molding technology. The result is an elegant yet strong and durable beautiful wood shell. The collection was expanded again in 2015 to include a counter stool and barstool. Each provides just the right amount of give, with a deep seat pocket and waterfall seat edge to reduce pressure on the backs of thighs. The Molded Shell Chair is a celebration of the Eameses’ fascination with emerging materials. “The chair that Charles and Ray were designing,” says grandson Eames Demetrios, “is the chair that’s made tomorrow.” This is an authentic Eames Chair by Herman Miller.

We already had a set of 4 molded plastic chairs in white and now added 2 orange ones for a splash of color. They look great in our dining room. 4 starts for quality may be a bit too harsh considering that these are very well made. But we had the little plastic foot come off one of our chairs and I had a to buy a replacement. Thankfully, they are available from many sources (and at many price levels).
