A vintage Eames DAR chairs, with the Eiffel base - Manufacture by Vitra
 
Charles and Ray Eames developed their chairs in the 1950s originally in fibreglass. These furnishings have become icons of American mid-century modernism.
 
In particular the DAR chair which stands for Dining height Arm Chair  stands out as an inimitable classic design combining light elegant forms with structural strength in the intricate steel wire construction of its ‘Eiffel Tower’ base.
This is considered as one of the most iconic chairs in history and is often referred to instead as the Eiffel chair due to its base design. When the chair was originally designed in 1950 it was part of a series of different chairs from the Eames Office with the same chair shell featured on different interchangeable bases.
 
This created a chair for all kinds of purposes and was hugely popular.
