The chair combines timeless design, luxury materials, and exceptional comfort — a rare blend that has made it a mainstay in boardrooms, executive offices, and refined interiors worldwide.

Produced by Vitra, the exclusive licensed manufacturer for Europe, this vintage example has been professionally reupholstered in premium brown leather, restoring its tactile elegance while maintaining the original structural integrity and intent of the design. The rich, deep hue of the leather adds warmth and depth, making it a striking yet understated presence in any space.

The ES 108 is part of the Lobby Chair series, a close relative to the Eames Lounge Chair, but with a more compact footprint and an emphasis on upright posture, making it ideal for both formal seating environments and luxurious home interiors. The chair features three separate leather-upholstered cushions, supported by a rigid, polished aluminum frame and mounted on a four-star base with glides.
