Soft Pad ES 106 — Chaise

The idea for the ES 106 Soft Pad Chaise came from a longtime friend of Charles and Ray Eames — the film director Billy Wilder, who was in search of a recliner for taking short naps during breaks between film shoots. The result is one of the most characterful pieces in the Eames canon: a chaise that is as quietly cinematic as its origin story.

Six cushions fixed to the die-cast aluminium frame are joined with zippers, with two additional loose cushions providing extra comfort. Available exclusively in leather upholstery on a powder-coated aluminium base in smooth black. Recommended for residential use only.
