Product Description

A set of excellent vintage, original Eames Herman Miller side shell chair look fantastic in rather rare raw umber coupled with walnut, new, used DSW dowel bases. Raw umber side shells are a highly coveted colour for the Eames shell chairs and these versions are in excellent vintage condition.

The Eames shells require little introduction with prototypes beginning in the 1940s, production began in 1950. Arm shells were the first to be produced and the side shells were introduced in 1952/1953. Raw umber was a later colour offered in the Eames shell series but has proven to be a very sought-after colour amongst collectors’.

Individual Characteristics

As a highly coveted colour, these shells are some fantastic examples to own. The chairs do show some natural signs of wear but are in great vintage condition.

The ‘C’ with star indicates these shells originate from Herman Miller’s Cincinnati factory.

Investment Details

Eames shells are a highly collectable piece. Of course, as with anything, their age and condition are the primary factors influencing the investment value of them and this is coupled with the colour and originality of the chair. As some excellent examples of some raw umber side chairs, these are good investment pieces.
