Eames Plastic Armchair RAR Rocking Chair White Base
The Eames Plastic Armchair RAR Rocking Chair White Base was designed by Charles and Ray Eames for the brand Vitra.
Although this American couple worked across various media, including graphic and industrial design, film and fine art, it was their Lounge Chair which became their signature product. The early chairs were first constructed out of moulded plywood, but their partnership with the Swiss manufacturer Vitra and the advent of new synthetic materials helped the couple create one of the most recognisable pieces of 20th century furniture. The chair took various forms, but was born out of a desire to create maximum comfort and flexibility using emerging technologies.
This Eames Plastic Armchair RAR Rocking Chair White Base is a modern take on the more unusual design produced for a competition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. It includes the classic Eames features of ergonomically shaped moulded seats on top of minimalist wire struts on the homely wooden rocking chair base. The seats are made of polypropylene, which the makers say adds even more comfort than the original version. It is also stunning, creating a wow factor in any home.
