The Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman, designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1956, stands as one of the most celebrated furniture designs of the 20th century. This walnut edition with white leather represents a fresh, contemporary interpretation of the classic design—pairing the warm, natural grain of walnut veneer with the clean, modern elegance of white Italian leather. The result is a chair that honors the original vision while offering a sophisticated aesthetic suited to contemporary interiors. Nearly seven decades after its debut, this version brings new vitality to the iconic form, appearing regularly in luxury residences, design-forward offices, and media productions worldwide.
Dimensions

Ottoman: 63 cm (W) × 42 cm (H) × 56 cm (D)
Design & Comfort
The Eames Lounge Chair achieves its legendary comfort through sculptural form and thoughtful engineering. The seat, backrest, and armrests are formed from seven-layer laminated walnut 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 white Italian aniline leather. The walnut veneer provides classic mid-century warmth with natural grain variation, creating a beautiful contrast against the pristine white leather. The five-star chrome aluminum base provides stability and 360-degree swivel functionality, while the ottoman’s four-star base completes the experience.
Walnut & White Leather
This combination represents a contemporary take on the Eames aesthetic. Walnut’s warm, medium-brown tones with natural grain patterns create visual depth, while white Italian aniline leather brings clean, modern sophistication. The pairing emphasizes the chair’s sculptural qualities while maintaining approachability and warmth. White leather requires regular care but develops a beautiful patina over time, gaining character with use while maintaining its elegant appearance.
