Eames® DAX Armchair

The Eames Shell Chair was designed on the principle of adaptability, offering innumerable configurations to serve a wide variety of applications and environments. It's what makes the chair a classic worthy of museum collections and living rooms, Laundromats, lobbies, and cafe's. It's what makes it a great first piece of furniture to buy in your twenties, that's still worthy and relevant enough to hand down to your children 20 years later.

The chairs are available in both the arm and side chair formats in five archival colors or upholstery and can be configured with a choice of wire, dowel leg, stacking, rocker, and 4-leg bases. An array of trim, finely tailored Hopsak fabrics designed by Alexander Girard, Herman Miller s Textile Director from 1952 to 1973, round out the collection of shell customization options, fully restoring the integrity of the original 1953 shell chair offerings.
