For the Dining Height Side Chair Wood Base (DSW), Charles and Ray Eames organically combined the seat shell with a four-legged wooden base. The combination of plastic and wood gives this classic design its warm, laid-back appeal. The seat shells can be completed with cushions or full padding in various fabric colors, allowing different individual configurations.

PLASTIC CHAIR
«Getting the most of the best to the greatest number of people for the least» With these words, Charles and Ray Eames described one of their main goals as furniture designers. None of his works came as close to this ideal as the Plastic Chairs. For years, the two worked on the idea of a one-piece seat molded to fit the contours of the human body. In the 1940s, as their experiments with plywood and aluminum sheet did not give the expected results, the search for alternative materials led them to fiberglass reinforced polyester resin.
