The Best Eames Lounge Chair Replica Comparision

I have bought almost all (8) Eames Lounge Replicas on the markets from both US/Canada suppliers. After reviewing them all for the past 7 months, I have come up with a comprehensive comparison between them. All the companies that sell their chairs below $900 are cheap junk, so I have not listen them all. The ones above are the big players who know a thing or two about Eames s Design.

Hope you like it.

The Eames Lounge Chair from Vitra has a different veneer pattern and tone than its Herman Miller counterpart.

Designed in 1956 by none other than Modern Classic Master Couple Charles and Ray Eames, the Eames Lounge Chair put together ingenious design, quality and comfortable materials and top craftsmanship. There may be many replicas out there that looks exactly like the originals from Herman Miller and Vitra. But take a sit in them and you will instantly noticed the differences. The originals have soft cushions and the smooth leather, unlike the hard foam cushions found in replicas and lower grade leather just does not compare. I was actually quite surprised at the difference in comfort levels between the two.

EAMES LOUNGE CHAIR DESIGN

The Eameses focused first on usability in their designs. In addition to the style, the Eames Lounge Chair is very comfortable, a combination not always found in high design. The chair has become iconic with Modern style design although when it was first made Ray Eames remarked in a letter to Charles that the chair looked “comfortable and un-designy”. Charles s vision was for a chair with “the warm, receptive look of a well-used first baseman s mitt.” The chair is composed of three curved plywood shells. In modern production the shells are made up of seven thin layers of wood veneer glued together and shaped under heat and pressure.

This differentiates the newer chairs from the “original” (vintage) chairs which used Brazilian rosewood veneers and were constructed of five layers of plywood. Also differentiating the very earliest sets from newer sets were rubber spacers between the aluminium spines and the wood panels first used in the earliest production models and then hard plastic washers used in later versions. In the earlier sets, the zipper around the cushions may have been brown or black as well, and in newer sets the zippers are black. The shells and the seat cushions are essentially the same shape: composed of two curved forms interlocking to form a solid mass. The chair back and headrest are identical in proportion, as are the seat and the Ottoman.

Eames Lounge Chair: Survival Of The Fittest

The Eames Lounge Chair is of the most popular and famous chairs in the world. One of the reasons why I decided to make a review blog regarding timeless pieces. It is been, for over half a century, the preeminent lounge chair when it comes to style, comfort, and historical value. It is without a doubt the crown jewel of the Herman Miller Eames line. But there is no chair that combines the comfort, the classic style, the attractive melding of materials and the unexplained feeling of familiarity that the Eames Lounge Chair has. It is definitely in the discussion as the greatest chair of the last century.It was designed by Charles and Ray Eames, of the greatest furniture designers in modern history, and it is built, maintained, and warranted by Herman Miller, possibly the best fine furniture maker in the United States.

There is nothing about this lounger that does not draw effusive praise, that is not worthy of celebration. It is an iconic piece, and rightfully so.But even if it were not, this would be a deeply desirable chair. Had it been designed by somebody else,

forgotten by history, or somehow slipped

through the cracks, it would still be

a major piece of furniture. Thati s because

it is so comfortable and supportive.

This is the final lounge chair, better than any recliner you have tried and far more elegant, and the soft rich leather combined with the exact padding and gently crooked wood make for a restful sitting experience. Charles and Ray designed the stool with a peculiar model in their minds; they wanted it to be like an elderly catcher s mitt. And it definitely is, in all the right ways.. There is no more comfortable chair on the market, and none more effortlessly attractive.
