The Aluminium Chair is one of the great furniture designs of the twentieth century. Charles and Ray Eames conceived and developed this chair in 1958 for the private residence of an art collector in Columbus, Indiana (USA). For its construc-tion, the designer couple departed from the principle of the seat shell, instead stretching a panel of fabric or leather between two aluminium side members to create a taut but elastic seat. The chair adapts to the body of the sitter and is exceedingly comfortable, even without elaborate upholstery.
Vitra has produced Aluminium Group chairs in the same superior quality for decades. This experience allows us to off er a 30-year guarantee* on all of the chair models in the Aluminium Group.
∏ In versions with upholstery in Leather or Premium Leather, the seat surface is covered in the respective leather and the reverse side is covered with Plano fabric. The reverse side of the cover is optionally available in leather at additi-onal cost.

The Aluminium Group includes several diff erent models for use in homes, offi ces and public spaces: the Aluminium Chairs EA 101/103/104 serve as ideal dining chairs, while the Aluminium Chairs EA 105/107/108 are primarily used for conference settings – however, all of these models can be used for either purpose. The Aluminium Chairs EA 115/116 and EA 124/125 form two groups of lounge chairs, and the Aluminium Chairs EA 117/119 are the task chairs in this large product family. Thanks to this wide range of models, a variety of aluminium bases with a polished, chrome-plated or black powder-coated fi nish, and a large selection of colours for fabric or leather upholstery, the perfect Aluminium Chair can be found for every environment.
Charles and Ray Eames are counted among the most important fi gures of twentieth-century design. Their work spans the fi elds of furniture design, fi lmmaking, photography and exhibition design. Vitra is the sole authorised manufacturer of Eames products for
Europe and the Middle East. When you own an Eames product made by Vitra, you know it is an original.
