Description
One of, if not the, most iconic designs of the 20th Century, the Eames Lounge Chair & Ottoman personifies mid-century cool. Designed by husband and wife duo Charles & Ray Eames in 1956, this 'updated version of the old English club chair' set a benchmark in the history furniture manufacturing, combining luxurious comfort with the highest-quality materials and craftsmanship.
Our Stylist Says
This Eames chair and ottoman is a classic piece that combines timeless design with modern elegance. I love how its white walnut finish and Pearl Ivory upholstery create a neutral yet sophisticated look, making it highly versatile across various interiors-from minimalist scandinavian to mid-century modern spaces. It works particularly well as a statement piece in a lounge or study, where its comfort and style can be appreciated. For styling tips, pair it with soft throws or contrasting cushions in richer tones to add warmth, or keep accessories minimal for a sleek, contemporary vibe. Its sculptural form also lends itself well to pairing with mid-century furniture or contemporary accents-it's both functional and visually striking.
