Eames Dowel Leg Side Chair by Herman Miller
designed by Charles and Ray Eames

A new look combined with classic Eames style. The Dowel Leg Side Chair brings a softer, warmer feel to the geometric base of the molded plastic side chair. Commonly referred to as the DSW Chair.

Molded Plastic Dowel Leg Chair

A landmark design from Charles and Ray Eames, the molded plastic chairs consist of clean, simple forms sculpted to cradle the body. The Eameses adapted molding techniques developed during World War II to produce this classic design - the first industrially manufactured plastic chairs.

Today's chairs are true to the originals, with updated, eco-friendly materials. Their enduring forms and quality construction make them comfortable, durable performers.

Dimensions: 31.75" h x 18.5" w x 22" d
