The Eames Fiberglass Side Chair DSR (Dining-height Side Chair Rod base) was designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1951 as part of their iconic molded shell chair series. It features a sculptural fiberglass seat with visible fibers and a distinctive “Eiffel Tower” steel rod base. Originally made by Herman Miller, fiberglass production stopped in 1993 for environmental reasons but was revived in 2014 using safer resin technology. Today, Vitra produces the DSR in several of the original 1950s colors, with optional upholstery and cushions. The chair remains a mid-century modern classic prized for its versatility, elegance, and historical significance. This specific item has a rocking base.
