Eames Plastic Armchair RE RAR

The Plastic Chairs number among the most well-known designs by Charles and Ray Eames. One model has always stood out in this large family of chairs: the Rocking Armchair Rod Base (RAR). The iconic shape and rocker base on wooden runners adds a striking accent to any living room. 

Now in fully recycled plastic
As of Spring 2024 the shells of the Eames Plastic Chairs are now made of recycled post-consumer plastic and the chair family will be known known as Eames Plastic Chair RE.
The high-quality recycled material is obtained through the 'Yellow Bag' (Gelber Sack) collection programme in Germany. Utilising this material generates fewer climate-damaging emissions, with a significant reduction in primary energy consumption.
Physical samples can always be viewed in store at haus®.

Compatible loose seat pads are available separately in a range of fabrics and/or leathers: see Soft Seats Indoor Seat Pads and Soft Seats Outdoor Pads. 
Contact us to discuss upholstery options and to arrange for sample viewing - we're very happy to help.
