Description
The chair features a light and essential structure characterized by black-painted aluminum armrests, a five-star swivel base with casters, and a height-adjustable mechanism.
The seat and backrest are upholstered in dark green fabric, stretched across the frame according to the construction principle that defines the Aluminium Group. Rather than relying on traditional upholstery, the design uses a continuous and flexible surface that ergonomically adapts to the body.
The EA 117 is immediately recognizable for its clean, technical, and timeless profile. The black structure gives the chair a stronger and more contemporary appearance than the classic chromed versions, making it particularly suitable for both professional offices and refined home workspaces.
Design & Function
The chair retains all the distinctive elements of the original Charles & Ray Eames project: the lightweight aluminum structure, continuous armrests, slim profile, wheeled base, and ergonomic seating concept.
The dark green upholstery introduces a sophisticated and understated accent, maintaining an elegant balance between professional functionality and aesthetic quality.
Ideal for offices, studios, home workspaces, and contemporary interiors, the EA 117 remains one of the most successful interpretations of the modern office chair.
