Eames Aluminium Group office chair black mesh netweave

Designer: Charles and Ray Eames

Vitra

Low back Eames office/management chair in Nero Netweave (black mesh).

This chair is part The Aluminium Group by Vitra (manufactured by Herman Miller in the USA) and is one of the great furniture designs of the twentieth century. Charles and Ray Eames conceived and developed this chair in 1958 for the private residence of an art collector in Columbus, Indiana (USA). For its construction, the designer couple departed from the principle of the seat shell, instead stretching a panel of fabric or leather between two aluminium side members to create a taut but elastic seat. 

The Aluminium Group includes several different models for use in homes, offices and public areas, as well as in various combinations of fabrics, swivel and non swivel, with and without arms and with fixed or castor feet. All Aluminium Group chairs come with a 30-year guarantee.
