Charles Eames DSW Chair
The Eames DSW Chair merges Charles Eames' love of plastic with the rustic appeal of wood. Our STIN Eames DSW Chair stays true to the original blueprint and is a joy to look at, touch and feel. The shell is moulded to the shape of the body and available in shiny fibreglass, matt plastic or cashmere. The unique Eiffel tower legs are constructed from beech wood and steel. Like the original, our plastic version displays round markings on the seat. This is a natural result of the legs meeting the material. The Charles Eames DSW Chair comes in several colours including white, orange, red, black, blue and green furniture options.
The story behind the Charles Eames DSW Chair
Created in 1948, the Charles Eames DSW Chair forms part of a series of moulded plastic chairs designed by the husband and wife team, Charles and Ray Eames. Each DSW Chair has the same ergonomically designed seat combined with different bases and arm styles. They are identified by their initials – for example, DSW stands for Dining chair, Side chair with a Wood base. This series of chairs has the iconic status of being the first industrially manufactured plastic chairs. Like its matching armchair, the Charles Eames DAR Chair, the DSW Dining Chair has a deep seat pocket with a curved high back and waterfall seat edge to provide extra comfort.

ABOUT THE DESIGNER
Charles Eames
Charles, 1907-1978 (United States) - Ray, 1912-1988 (United States)
Charles Eames was an American designer and innovator who pioneered new techniques, such as the fibreglass and plastic resin moulding and wire mesh frames. He usually worked alongside his wife, Ray, though he is often credited alone. In the 1940s, the designers began focusing on the new plastics and were excited by the properties the material held. They were able to mould the plastics into organic shapes that followed the shape of the body. This discovery led to a whole new look in furniture that perfectly captured the spirit of the times. The couple’s most iconic designs include the DAR chair, the DSR Dining Chair, the RAR Rocker, the DSW Dining Chair, the EA 108 Office Chair and the Wire Base Table. Many of these were first presented at the New York Museum of Modern Art’s Low-Cost Furniture Design Competition in the late 1940s.

Have had our two Eames chairs for 14 days now. They are beautifully made of fiberglass and look like the originals. But the color of the wood is lighter than the picture. It was a bit disappointing.

A light and handy chair that is perfect for our holiday. It's good to sit in and easy to "keep clean" with its seat of plastic that can be easily wiped clean if necessary.

Comfortable and nice chair, looking pretty much as the original - but the black plastic legs keep falling off, which is annoying.
Other than that we are very pleased with our products :)

Found this chair cheaper elsewhere, but have had bad experiences with quality. Do not mind paying a little extra for a product that will last for years and years!

I received my chairs quickly after ordering and it arrived to the doorstep. I'm so happy with the new chairs and they are quite amazing to sit in. Can only give my warmest recommendations on these chairs :-) Only thing I can add is that we were missing a couple of plastic feet for the legs, but they sent them straight after I contacted them.
