Login to ask a questionA pair of gorgeous deep navy blue, highly fibrous, original, vintage Eames Herman Miller fiberglass side shell chairs look amazing on used light oak DSW bases. The rich colour of these shells have stood the test of time well and they are excellent examples of the beautiful colours the shell chairs were made in.
The fantastic range of colours the Eames shells were offered in helped see their popularity increase rapidly and it is easy to see why with such beautiful depths of colour achieved. This blue chair is an excellent example of how well the dying process can stand up to the test of time when looked after. There are signs of age, as one would expect for a 70 year old chair, but the colour has retained an excellent amount of pigmentation.
Individual Characteristics
The shells may show some signs of use in the form of light surface scratching which may range from being present on the surface of them, to the backrest and to the edges, but this is no more to expect than from chairs that have seen a long life. The colour is wonderful and the newer, used, dowel bases are in great condition.
The ‘C’ with the 3 pointed star inside indicates these shells were made at the Herman Miller’s Cincinnati Milicron factory between 1958 and 1965.
