Vitra Eames Plastic Armchair RE DAR
Manufacturer: Vitra | Designer: Charles & Ray Eames, 1950
DAR — Dining Height Armchair, Rod Base
The Eames Plastic Armchair RE DAR is the armchair counterpart to the DSR — the same organically shaped recycled polypropylene shell, now with arms, on a slender wire rod base with cross struts. First presented at the Museum of Modern Art's Low-Cost Furniture Design competition in 1950, the Eames armchair shell was among the first industrially manufactured plastic chairs.
The DAR (Dining Height Armchair Rod Base) pairs the wider armchair shell with a four-legged wire rod base available in chrome or powder-coated finish. The shell is produced from recycled post-consumer plastic sourced from household packaging collected through Germany's Yellow Bag (Gelber Sack) scheme — significantly reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions versus virgin plastic. At end of life, the shells are 100% recyclable. Due to the nature of the recycled material, shell colours carry very subtle specks of pigment.
The unupholstered DAR with a powder-coated base is suitable for outdoor use on a temporary or seasonal basis — after prolonged exposure to the elements, clean and store in a dry, sheltered place to ensure lasting use and avoid any deterioration in appearance.
