«The Quiet Icon»
Designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1946, the LCM Chair—short for Lounge Chair Metal—was a revelation. Melding warm molded plywood with sleek chrome-plated steel, it captured the future of furniture in one graceful gesture.
This particular chair is an original, era-authentic piece, produced by Herman Miller and marked accordingly. Its walnut veneer has aged with dignity, and though unrestored, it wears its decades with quiet confidence. Chrome legs remain strong and sculptural—a striking contrast to the organic curve of the seat.
Whether you preserve it as-is or choose to revive its finish, this chair is far more than decor. It’s a cornerstone of modern design history—functional, refined, and deeply human.
Untouched. Unmistakable.
There’s a quiet kind of prestige in finding an original Eames LCM, just as it left the hands of Herman Miller decades ago. Walnut plywood, gracefully molded. Chrome legs, still gleaming. And the mark that proves it—authentic, era-made, and untouched.
Designed in 1946, the Lounge Chair Metal was the Eames’ industrial ballet—a fusion of natural materials and machine precision that changed the course of furniture design.
This one hasn’t been restored. It doesn’t need to impress—it simply is. A rare opportunity to own a piece exactly as time intended, with every curve and nuance intact.
