FAQ's

The Fiberglass Chairs were launched on the market in 1950, introducing a new furniture typology that has since become widespread: the multifunctional chair whose shell can be combined with a variety of bases to serve different purposes. In response to the enormous popularity of the chair, the choice of bases and colours was subsequently expanded. Over the course of the following decade, the Fiberglass Chairs became one of the best known furniture designs of the twentieth century. For the Dining Height Armchair Wood Base (DAW), Charles and Ray Eames combined the organically shaped shell with a four-legged wooden base. This mix of plastic and wood lends the classic design a certain warmth and casual appeal.
