If you want furniture that offers modernism with a minimalist design, then you may want to consider investing in an Eames lounger, a part of Eames office collection. Although Eames lounger (which comes with an ottoman) was originally released in 1956, it is still considered as one of the most important and aesthetically desirable furniture designs of the twentieth century. In addition to being a classic design, an Eames lounger offers comfort seating which you do not often find in some furniture with high-end design.

Eames lounger combines function and elegance. Its flat lounge pad comes in leather upholstery, and this is stretched over a frame made from stainless steel tubing. The pillow retains its form with support from thin metal slats. The whole assembly of pillow, headrest and lounge pad sits atop a black metal base, solid but understated so as to focus attention on the lounge. Your Eames lounger can easily transform your home into a classy lounge.

The original Eames lounger is made from rosewood veneer, with buttoned black leather upholstery which is filled with foam, duck feathers and down. If you are interested with this original design, you can visit some auctions. Expect, however, to find Eames lounger to cost tens of thousand dollars as there are a number of collectors who are willing to pay even that price.

Although the most popular color of Eames lounger is black, you have a wide array of colors to choose from: bright white, chocolate, red, ivory and golden tan, to name a few. The recent designs of Eames lounger and ottoman are already made of walnut and cherry wood which would cost you a few thousand dollars. Because of its high price, a number of cheap imitations have flooded the market. However, you will not get the same craftsmanship and durability of a genuine Eames lounger.
