EAMES DREAMS

This is a great ICF made Eames chair. It is comfortable and beautifully made. ICF were licenced manufacturers of Eames designs, to the original specifications in Italy up until the 1990s when the license passed to Vitra. The ICF examples have now become more desirable as they are no longer available and it is rare to find original examples in such great condition. Complete with original ICF labels stating they have been made to the original Eames specifications, these chairs are a great investment you can literally afford to sit on.

This chair is the low back mesh seat variant standing on the swivel five prong base, each foot terminating in a smooth glide. Collectors and chair enthusiasts like the mesh version as it shows off the smooth curved aluminium frame to best effect, yet remains extremely comfortable. An iconic design that is sure to increase in value. We have four of these design classics available. For more details, or a little sit down, please contact me geoff@kirkmodern.com

DESIGN INSPIRATION

This original vintage armchair was manufactured by Scandart in the 1960s. As their name suggests they produced Scandinavian / Danish inspired furniture of high quality build and retailed in relatively small numbers making key pieces increasingly rare and desirable. 

Re-upholstered in a rich dark grey tweed, and re-polished to show the warm honey tones of the sleek Danish inspired curved frame, this is a great mid- century modern design with a low slung feel and a very Wegner style! To reserve or view this item please email geoff@kirkmodern.com
