leah’s ebay finds: vintage eames rocker

rocks

This vintage Eames shell chair may not be perfect, but it still has a whole lot of style. After all, what are a few minor factory flaws in the fiberglass when you’re talking about a modern design classic? The original shell (don’t worry, purists: the Herman Miller logo is embossed on the bottom) has been given new life with the addition of a reproduction zinc-and-walnut base. Current bid: $51, plus $45 domestic shipping. I guess you could say it rocks — in every sense of the word. — Leah H.
