Eames Style LCW Moulded Plywood Occasional Chair – Blackwood
Bring timeless mid-century modern elegance into your living space with this Eames Style LCW moulded plywood lounge chair in a rich Blackwood finish. The original LCW (Lounge Chair Wood) was designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1946, using plywood moulded under heat and pressure — a technique that reshaped how furniture was made. This chair is an inspired interpretation of that design, not the licensed original. Like the Plywood Group pieces behind it, each curved panel follows the natural contours of your body for outstanding comfort. The deep Blackwood veneer pairs with polished chrome-plated steel hardware and rubber shock mounts to create a striking balance of organic warmth and industrial refinement.

Why Choose This Eames LCW Plywood Chair?
In 1999 Time magazine named the 1946 original — the Eames LCW — the “Best Design of the 20th Century”. That honour belongs to Charles and Ray Eames’ original design, not to this chair. This Eames style moulded plywood chair is an inspired interpretation of it, made with authentic proportions and premium materials. Frequently featured in broadcast studios, film sets, and design-led interiors worldwide, the LCW silhouette is an ideal choice for architects, interior designers, and style-conscious homeowners seeking authentic mid-century character.
