Product Description

An exceptional, collector-grade example of the iconic Charles and Ray Eames DCM (Dining Chair Metal) manufactured by Herman Miller in February 2001. Featuring a stunning ebonized black molded plywood seat and backrest paired with a brilliant trivalent chrome base, this piece balances striking mid-century minimalism with ergonomic comfort. Fully authenticated with its original silver manufacturer label.

Up for sale is a beautiful, authentic Eames Molded Plywood Dining Chair with Metal Base (DCM), manufactured by Herman Miller. This specific piece features a production date stamp from February 2001 prominently displayed on its original underside sticker, guaranteeing its provenance and investment value.

Named by Time magazine as the "Best Design of the 20th Century," the DCM showcases Charles and Ray Eames' breakthrough 1940s technology in molding compound curves into lightweight sheets of veneer.

This chair pairs an elegant ebonized/stained black finish on the shaped plywood with a contrasting, high-polished chrome leg base. The original rubber shock mounts remain intact, providing the signature responsive flex and comfort for which the line is famous. Kept in a smoke-free, climate-controlled environment, it is in excellent vintage condition with minimal signs of age, making it perfect as a standalone accent piece or an addition to a modern dining set.
