The Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman, designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1956, stands as one of the most influential furniture designs of the 20th century. Conceived as a modern reinterpretation of the classic English club chair, it was intended to possess “the warm, receptive look of a well-used first baseman’s mitt.” This rosewood edition combines the chair’s iconic silhouette with the rich, dramatic grain of rosewood veneer and tan brown Italian leather—a pairing that emphasizes both sophistication and warmth. Nearly seven decades after its debut, the design remains a fixture in luxury residences, corporate offices, and media productions worldwide. This replica honors that legacy with meticulous attention to materials, proportions, and craftsmanship.
Dimensions

Design & Comfort
The Eames Lounge Chair achieves its legendary comfort through thoughtful engineering and material selection. The seat, backrest, and armrests are formed from seven-layer laminated rosewood veneer, molded under heat and pressure to create the chair’s organic, flowing curves. These plywood shells connect via rubber and metal shock mounts—an innovative system that allows subtle flex and movement, creating what the Eameses described as a “resilient” sitting experience that responds naturally to the body.
Each of the three cushions is hand-sewn with welted piping and filled with high-density fire-retardant foam, then upholstered in premium tan brown Italian aniline leather. The rosewood veneer brings depth and visual drama, with darker tones and pronounced grain patterns that create a striking contrast against the warm leather. The five-star chrome aluminum base provides stability and 360-degree swivel functionality, while the ottoman’s four-star base offers the perfect height for extended relaxation.
Rosewood & Tan Brown Combination
Rosewood veneer offers a more dramatic aesthetic than walnut or teak, with darker tones and distinctive reddish undertones that add visual richness. Paired with tan brown leather, the combination creates a sophisticated warmth—the leather’s honey tones playing against the wood’s deeper figure. This pairing emphasizes the chair’s mid-century heritage while maintaining contemporary relevance.
