Eames Molded Plastic Side Chair by Herman Miller
designed by Charles and Ray Eames
At A Glance: This is another entry in the long list of Charles and Ray Eames classics. You've probably seen this chair before (or some version of it) in your elementary school classroom, in auditoriums and cafeterias across the country, and in reception halls. Efficient, unique, attractive, creative, and popular; those words describe the Molded Plastic Side Chair to a tee.
What's To Like: A sense of history, a sense of fun, and a legitimate art object in your home or office.
What's Not to Like: This version of the chair doesn't have the bells and whistles that latter versions have. No armrests, for instance. And while the chair is great for smaller people (thus their popularity in schools), bigger adults won't find them as comfortable as others will.
The Bottom Line: A beautiful chair with a proud history, and good price and fun, playful presence in any room of your home or office.
Charles and Ray Eames adapted molding techniques developed during World War II to mass produce this classic design. These molded plastic armchairs are true to the originals and are fully authentic, with updated materials to meet environmental requirements. Their enduring forms and quality construction make them comfortable, durable performers. Commonly referred to as the DSX Chair.
Dimensions: 31.25" h x 18" w x 21.25" d

This is the most simple variation in the series. Four metal legs, elegantly tapered and polished, with strong connections to the base of the chair and ends that keep the chair from sliding or leaving marks on wood and tile flooring.
This is the model that you see most often in auditoriums and large gathering spaces. They're simple, lovely, and easy to deploy, stack, and use. That's right, each of these chairs can be stacked or ganged, making them convenient for spaces that are multi-purpose. When you need space, you stack up the chairs and put them to the side. When you need people to sit, you deploy them. These chairs are more than just seating; they're seating solutions.
The Four Legged style is the most common because it is the most simple and has the least amount of aesthetic flourishing in the legs. It's brother and sister chairs are more outgoing in the that regard, more showy of their beautiful designs. Because it always gets the job done, it's easy to move and manipulate in large groups, and it's more reserved style never threatens to clash with the tone of a room or a design scheme, this is a very very popular model of the Eames Molded Plastic Chair.
The Herman Miller Molded Plastic Side Chair is also known by the following manufacturer Item Numbers: DSX.
