Now I know most people would cough a little heavily when I tell them that this, yes, Eames Lounge Chair with Ottoman is $7,745.00. But hey, that does include the ottoman. This has been on my radar for what seems like forever and part of me believes I was born with an silver spoon in my mouth. But this classic mid century modern furniture piece is truly “the one” that says rolex in the world of furniture. It says “i’ve made it” and it’s a head turner.
Originally produced by the Herman Miller company and still in production today, every chair is considered an original. The concept was created by the husband and wife team Ray and Charles Eames and I am quite embarrassed to admit, that even just now, did I learn that Ray was a she and not a he. Ouch. So much for the feminist movement. Ray and Charles wanted to create a product that was a modern take on the classic victorian club chair and make it as comfortable as an old catchers mitt. Of course, every American could relate to that, given baseball is one of their beloved sports.
But, more importantly this Canadian girl gives it a “two snaps up and a circle” and in her world of design accolades.
If your interested in purchasing this chair I have a direct link and offering a welcome discount to celebrate my very first blog here at ADELINE HOME.
