In the early 1940s, after working all day on MGM set designs, Charles eames returned to his small L.A. apartment and his wife, Ray. Together the two designers worked through their evenings, using thin sheets of veneer and a bicycle-pump compressor, experimenting with wood-molding techniques. The technology they developed during those late hours made their revolutionary furniture designs possible, including this modest lounge chair. Comfortable, practical, proven. It is slightly lower and has a wider seat and back than the molded plywood dining chair. Five-ply seat and back. Eight-ply legs and lumbar support. Inner plies are maple.
