Eames® Molded Plywood Dining Chair Metal Base (DCM) 20%

Designed by Charles and Ray Eames for Herman Miller®
By molding lightweight plywood veneer into gentle curves, Charles and Ray Eames created a chair of contoured comfort - and established the foundation for a major movement in modern furniture design. Sized for dining or work tables, this classic design works in any space calling for refined seating with enduring style.

This chair's curved plywood seat and back are so thin, the design was nicknamed the "potato chip chair" soon after it was launched. Decades later, it earned a different title, when Time magazine named it the Best Design of the 20th century.
