This ottoman is not simply a footrest; it is the essential complement to one of the world's most famous pieces of furniture: the Eames Lounge Chair. Only with this ottoman is the reclining comfort of Charles & Ray Eames' classic design perfected. The ottoman is upholstered in high-quality, deep black leather. The leather displays the characteristic, gentle creases and features the typical button tufting, which gives the upholstery its classic, voluminous structure. The upholstery is nestled within an elegantly curved plywood shell in a warm, reddish-brown wood tone (likely rosewood or walnut). This contrast between the cool, smooth leather and the natural wood grain is what gives this mid-century design its special charm. The structure is supported by a swiveling four-star base. This base is lacquered black, with the tops of the legs polished, creating a sophisticated interplay of light. The base ensures stability and harmonizes perfectly with the matching armchair.
