The couple had spent the war bending plywood under pressure, first for leg splints made for the Navy, then for chairs. LCM stands for \"Lounge Chair Metal\": the seat and the backrest, two shells of molded wood, float on a chromed steel tube base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach shell is fixed with black rubber mounts that cushion the body and let the wood flex. Here the ash is stained black, so the grain remains visible beneath the finish. The piece is low, light, almost graphic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pair was made by Vitra, which has produced the Eames designs in Europe since 1957. The original Vitra label, dated 1997, is still on the back of one backrest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood condition of the ash and the metal for pieces that will soon be thirty years old, with a few light marks of use. A very beautiful, elegant pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach chair measures 61 cm deep, 55 cm wide and 66 cm high.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther \u003ca href=\"\/en\/search?q=Eames\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epieces by Charles and Ray Eames\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e are available at Treaptyque.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Treaptyque","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60134015467845,"sku":"ART_2354","price":1950.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5077\/2174\/files\/388.jpg?v=1794155103","url":"https:\/\/www.treaptyque.com\/en\/products\/paire-de-chaises-lcm-en-frene-noir-par-charles-et-ray-eames-pour-vitra-90s","provider":"Treaptyque","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
