Charles and Ray Eames for Herman Miller Fiberglass Shell Chair. What makes this project desirable is its rarity. This is an early transitional example with the Zenith Manufacturing label and partial rope edge. This was manufactured in the window of time between the full rope edge version and later versions where they discontinued reinforcing the shell with rope altogether and utilized the smaller shock mounts as in the later and more readily available versions. Ca 1951. Highly Collectible and Rare Original un-restored condition. Torn out section included for repair. Shock mounts have been removed by previous owner (I do not have them). Listing is for shell seat only. Base is not included.
