They are distinguished by their hand-made "rope-edge" Zenith shells and early lounge-height x-bases. These are museum-quality examples of one of the most important chair designs of the last century. Each chair retains its original, early 1950s vintage "Charles Eames / Zenith Plastics Co. / Herman Miller" label." Photo 6 of 7 in Mid-Century Finds by Sam Kaufman by Amanda Dameron
