eames molded fiberglass stool
Design Charles & Ray Eames®
Molded fiberglass, metal legs
Made by Herman Miller®
The familiar form of the Eames Molded Fiberglass shell sits atop a 4-leg base design that makes it an ideal seating option at bar- or counter-height surfaces. Thanks to advances in safe fiberglass composition, the Eames' distinctive single-shell form is safely produced by means of a less volatile, monomer-free "dry bind" process. The process for making shells and the nature of fiberglass give each shell unique character traits that may include some surface cavities, areas of lighter or darker color, or faint circular shadows where stool base is attached to shell.
With a grand sense of adventure, Charles and Ray Eames turned their curiosity and boundless enthusiasm into creations that established them as a truly great husband-and-wife design team. Their unique synergy led to a whole new look in furniture. Lean and modern. Playful and functional. Sleek, sophisticated, and beautifully simple. That was and is the "Eames look."
The Eames stools represent the evolution of Charles and Ray Eames' iterative process, which continually pushed the boundaries of what a single-shell chair could be. The seat and back are formed of a single piece of molded fiberglass with waterfall edges. The Eames fiberglass stool is offered in a choice of base colors and the shell can be specified in a variety of archival colors. The fiberglass shell can also be upholstered in an array of textiles. Black and chrome 4-leg bases are provided with black glides while the white 4-leg base has white glides.
