Vitra Eames Fiberglass DAL Dining Chair - Checkerboard

Vitra Eames Fiberglass DAL Dining Chair seat cushion checker.

Vitra produces the Fiberglass Side Chairs and Fiberglass Armchairs by Charles and Ray Eames in several of the original colors. The fiberglass shells are characterized by their vibrant visual appeal, which is highly valued today. Fiberglass owes its charm to an irregular surface, which appears almost natural thanks to its clearly visible fibers.

The versions with a polypropylene shell, the Eames Plastic Chairs, are also still available. Together, the two chair groups form an extensive family, enabling countless variations on the classic Eames design, with a suitable version for almost every taste and purpose.

The base for the DAL chair (Dining Height Armchair La Fonda Base) was developed in 1961 by Charles and Ray Eames for the legendary New York restaurant La Fonda del Sol, whose interior was designed by their friend Alexander Girard.

With its central pedestal made up of four parallel axes that split at the bottom to form a four star base, it is one of the most elegant and unconventional pedestals ever designed by the Eames's.
