The RAR Rocking Chair Winter Special

The RAR Rocking Chair Winter Special - Charles and Ray Eames - Vitra The Plastic Armchairs designed by Charles and Ray Eames were first presented as part of the Low Cost Furniture Design competition sponsored by the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1948. The organically shaped seat shells were later combined with a variety of bases and soon became a furniture classic of the 20th century.

Vitra has now launched a time-limited special edition of the classic rocking chair and present it in a new light. The polypropylene seat shell is made in an earthy, Basalt grey (RAL 7022) and rests on a metal rod base lacquered in a coal black colour (RAL 9004). The maple runners have been treated with a rich dark stain.

The RAR Rocking Chair Winter Special in earthy grey tones The RAR Rocking Chair Winter Special - priced at £424, pre-order now - is available from November 2012 only until March 2013.
