Vitra Eames Plastic Chair RE Stool Medium Seat Upholstery

Manufacturer: Vitra

Designer: Charles & Ray Eames, 1950

This is an original genuine Vitra piece.

The Eames Plastic Stools RE come in a choice of two different heights: medium for kitchen counters and high for standing- height tables. Either chrome-plated or powder-coated in black, the base for both height versions is adapted from the classic four-legged base of the DSX chair. Its geometry is modified to accommodate the altered distribution of forces in the higher seating positions while a footrest ensures comfort and safety. When ordered with a powder-coated base, the Plastic Stools RE can also be used outdoors.

Materials: Seat shell: dyed-through, recycled polypropylene, 100% recyclable.

All models are available with a seat cushion (screwed to the seat shell) or full upholstery. The fully upholstered version has moulded polyurethane foam padding covered in fabric, attached to the shell with a welted edge. Different shell and upholstery colours and various bases provide a multitude of possible combinations.

Note: due to the composition of the recycled material, the seat shell colours exhibit very subtle specks of pigment.

Base: Base: tubular steel, chrome-plated or powder-coated, non-stackable.

Ideal for use at counters and tables 90 to 100 cm in height.

Dimensions: Width: 510mm x Depth: 540mm x Height: 1080mm (seat height: 670mm)

Outdoor use: unupholstered version with powder-coated base suitable for utilisation outdoors on a temporary or seasonal basis, following care instructions. After prolonged exposure to the elements, clean and store away in a dry, sheltered place to ensure lasting use and avoid any deterioration in appearance.
