Vitra Eames DSX Plastic Chair

The Vitra Eames DSX Plastic Chair, by Charles and Ray Eames, features the classic plastic shell, mounted on a standard 4 leg tubular base. As part of the plastic chair series DSX means 'dining height side chair, X-Base'. This iconic dining chair has a moulded polypropylene shell in a variety of colours, with chrome-plated steel or black powder coated legs for a robust finish. Every colour in this selection is carefully chosen to complement the others, so you can mix and match a variety of shades to suit your décor.

Highly influential and endlessly imitated, husband and wife team Charles and Ray Eames revolutionised 20th Century furniture design. They combined their respective disciplines in architecture and modern art with low-cost yet durable materials to create perfectly balanced, functional furniture.

What does RE mean on Vitra products?
Products marked RE use recycled materials. Vitra's commitment to more environmentally sustainable production has led them to engineer the Eames Plastic Shell chairs from recycled post-consumer plastic. The recycled material stems from German household waste collected via the "Yellow Bag" (Gelber Sack) system. Utilising this material instead of virgin plastic generates fewer climate-damaging emissions and consumes significantly less energy, all while maintaining Vitra's incredibly high standards.
