Charles Eames, Ray Eames - ICF - Office chair - EA219 Soft Pad

The elegant contrast between the slender aluminum profile and the soft roundness of the leather-covered cushions is the strong point of this armchair designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1969, a further evolution of the couple's research on the structures of work chairs. The Ea 219 Soft Pad is the flagship model of the Alluminium Group range intended for a small audience of connoisseurs. It is currently being sold new for 4390 euros. The specimen up for auction was made of chromed aluminum and leather of a beautiful cream color. The armchair was taken over by a real estate brokerage agency in the luxury sector in Milan. Production dates back to the late 1970s. The conditions of use are very good as the Ea 219 was used very little in an office that was opened sporadically. The leather is perfectly intact without cuts or abrasions, with a slightly worn look that gives the charm of an object full of history. The chromed aluminum structure is intact with slight signs of age. The wheels turn soft. The gas mechanism that raises and lowers the seat works perfectly as well as the shock absorber that regulates the hardness of the inclination. The armchair has been thoroughly cleaned the regenerated leather with nourishing products the polished metal parts.
