Originally designed by the renowned designers Charles and Ray Eames, the Stools carry a captivating history. In 1960, the Eames Office received a prestigious commission from Time Inc. to furnish the interiors of three main lobbies in New York's Rockefeller Center. As part of this project, the Eames couple crafted the Lobby Chairs along with a series of solid walnut stools.
The expertly crafted stools exemplify Eames' careful attention to detail. With a distinct profile and the natural hues of walnut wood, these stools showcase the unique artistry that defines their craftsmanship. Embracing versatility, these stools effortlessly transition between providing a comfortable seating option and functioning as elegant occasional tables. Featuring a concave seat design, the Eames Stool not only has a stylish aesthetic but also provides exceptional comfort.
