Eames PACC armchair with upholstery, 1950
Eames PACC armchair by Charles & Ray Eames for Vitra.
Since the 1950s, Plastic Armchair's organically shaped seat shell has been combined with different bases and produced in its millions.
The Eames Plastic Chair has undergone numerous refinements and adjustments throughout its conception in the 1950s. To enhance its sustainability, with the exception of the 'pure white' finish, the chair shells now utilise recycled materials sourced from German household waste, notably collected through the 'Der Gelbe Sack' (Yellow Bag) system and predominantly from used packaging. This shift from traditional plastic to recycled material not only contributes to a reduction in climate-damaging emissions but also conserves energy.
All models are available with a seat cushion (screwed to the seat shell) or full upholstery. The fully upholstered version has moulded polyurethane foam padding covered in fabric, attached to the shell with a welted edge. Different shell and upholstery colours and various bases provide a multitude of possible combinations.
PACC (PACC = Pivot Armchair Cast Base on Castors) makes the Plastic Armchair into an office swivel chair. The organically shaped upholstered shells are particularly comfortable and radiate a homely atmosphere.
Also available without upholstery here.
Herman Miller has the sole license for the Charles and Ray Eames collection in the U.S. and the Far East. Therefore the export of these products from the UK to the U.S. is not possible.
