Eames Plastic Side Chair fra Vitra ble opprinnelig designet av Ray og Charles Eames. Dette er en fornyet utgave av den legendariske glassfiberstolen. Originalversjonen, som faktisk var den aller første masseproduserte plaststolen, ble produsert som et bidrag til en konkurranse arrangert av New Yorks Museum of Modern Art. Den nåværende versjonen er laget av polypropylen og gir enda mer komfort sammenlignet med forgjengeren i hardplast. Eames Plastic Side Chair, med sine enkle organiske former, regnes i dag som stamfaren til alle eksisterende skallstoler og er en av de virkelig klassiske stolene som finnes. Gjennom muligheten til å velge mellom en rekke ulike design med flere ulike understell og farger, passer Eames Plastic Side Chair inn i alle tenkelige omgivelser. Finnes også som lenestol, Eames Plastic Armchair.

It is fair to say that the Eames Chairs are one of, if not the most, popular Eames design in existence. But not all of these chairs were made equally! It is easy to get confused sometimes with the sheer number of colors or bases or with ages. You may have heard or read enthusiasts or collectors speak about first generation, second generation and not know what any of it means! Generations are of course subjective in any case but by using such a system really does help to recognize, authenticate and age a chair reasonably accurately. From humble beginnings in the original Eames Office, to the first factory of Zenith Plastics, and to the last in Zeeland Michigan. In this article, we explore the many Eames Plastic Arm Chair Generations.

This label was generally found on early 1st generation ESU & EDU units but is occasionally found on early first generation rope edge arm shells as well. Given that the label was in use in the early life of the arm shells, there is little significance that can be attributed to it and it does not in fact signify any generation change. Most likely, this label was deployed in short term absence of stock of the usual full checkerboard label, especially as it had the exact same application method.But what of the Eames Plastic Arm Chairs, available since 2001 we hear you say?... well we barely consider them to be an Eames Chair at all but it is only our opinion. Whereas on the one hand Heymat, Jonathan Adler, Seletti, Skagerak, Skogsberg & Smart, Skultuna, Smeg, Stelton, String, Swedese, Sören Lund, Aesop, Afroart, Alessi, Artek, Artemide, Atelje Lyktan, B&B Italia,they match the original Eames Ethos as 'low cost furniture for the masses' it appears to apply more to the cost of making it rather than those buying. When you consider tops made from polypropylene are machine mass produced and cost around $5 in factories dotted around China, yet sold for hundreds of dollars one could ask; where is the quality? Also worth considering is their launch 13 years after Ray Eames' death (23 after Charles) it is certainly fair to say neither had any involvement in their being whatsoever, despite the insinuation that they did.

A small and comfortable reading chair – was developed in several versions for the 1940 'Organic Design in Home Furnishings' competition organised by the Museum of Modern Art in New York. With its sculptural shapes, the design was ahead of the times. But due to the absence of suitable manufacturing techniques, the armchair never went into production.

Charles and Ray developed a striking series of individual bases that could be freely combined with these shells – such as the Eiffel Tower version made of welded steel wire or the wooden base reinforced with metal struts. This combination of revolutionary seat shells and innovative bases gave the chair family the iconic traits that are still instantly recognisable today.
