mid-century modern (mcm) lovers, here's a genuine herman miller eames molded fiberglass side chair. it's the real thing (not a reproduction). manufactured may 2014 and clearly marked with the herman miller label underneath.
it features the iconic, armless charles & ray eames shell and was made with herman miller's revived fiberglass process, so it has the signature surface striations that collectors look for. the shell is a vivid, saturated green, and it sits on the classic dowel base (natural maple legs with a white wire strut frame). the frame is solid and is a lovely detail: the contrast makes the green pop.
it came from an estate as a single chair. excellent condition. the shell is clean and bright with no cracks or chips. only minor wear consistent with its age, and it's clearly been well cared for. solid, sturdy, and ready to use.
a timeless, instantly recognizable piece of design that works beautifully as a desk chair, accent chair, or an extra seat at the table. worth noting: herman miller currently has these fiberglass chairs on a production hold, so you can't buy one from them right now. but you can have this one for $375. when the company starts making them again, expect their retail price to exceed the $750-850 they charged before the hold.
cash only. local pickup in oakland near the high street exit from 580.
