    Description

    Here is a matched pair of vintage fiberglass shell armchairs in the classic Eames DAX silhouette, mounted on tall chrome wire bar-height bases complete with integrated footrests — a combination that turns one of the most recognizable chair designs of the 20th century into a perch worthy of your best kitchen counter or home bar. The shells are molded in a warm parchment or seafoam white fiberglass with that unmistakable hand-laid strand texture visible on the undersides, confirming genuine vintage fiberglass construction rather than later polypropylene reproductions. Seat height measures approximately 24 inches to the shell bottom, with overall height reaching roughly 39 inches, putting these squarely in counter-stool territory. Condition is consistent with their age — the shells show surface scratching and patina on the undersides while the fronts present beautifully, and the chrome wire bases show light oxidation and wear — all the honest character you want from the real deal.
