Eames EA 117 Thin Pad Ribbed Office Chair | Low Back | Orange
Eames EA 117 Thin Pad Ribbed Office Chair | Low Back | Orange
The Eames office chair in its most bold, expressive low-back colourway. The EA 117 is a low-back, ribbed thin pad office chair inspired by the legendary Eames Aluminum Group — first designed by Charles and Ray Eames and produced under licence by Herman Miller and Vitra. Our Eames style office chair faithfully recreates the iconic low-back silhouette in orange leather — a vibrant, energetic tone that makes a confident design statement in any creative studio, modern office, or home workspace.
Orange is the most distinctive and expressive of all EA 117 colourways — a nod to the bold, optimistic spirit of mid-century modern design. The charles eames office chair in orange leather is the choice for those who want the iconic Aluminum Group silhouette to be seen and remembered. This is charles eames furniture at its most characterful and alive.

The Story Behind the EA 117
The Eames Aluminum Group was first introduced in 1958 by Charles and Ray Eames — a collection of chairs produced by Herman Miller in the USA and Vitra in Europe that redefined what an office chair could be. Bold colour was always part of the Eames vision — Charles and Ray Eames believed that great design should bring joy as well as function. The EA 117 in orange honours that spirit at a fraction of the price of the original herman miller office furniture.

EA 117 vs EA 119 — Which Should You Choose?
The EA 117 (low back) and EA 119 (high back) are both eames type chairs from the same Aluminum Group family. Choose the EA 117 for a compact, dynamic seating profile with a bold colour statement. Choose the EA 119 if you need full upper back, shoulder, and neck support for long hours at a desk.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original Herman Miller or Vitra Eames chair?
No — a premium eames style office chair replica at a fraction of the price of the original vitra chairs or herman miller furniture.
Is orange a classic Eames colour?
Yes — bold, expressive colours were central to the Eames design philosophy. Charles and Ray Eames believed great design should bring joy as well as function. Orange is one of the most characterful and historically resonant colourways in the eames mid century furniture tradition.
What is the difference between the EA 117 and EA 119?
The EA 117 is the low-back version — more compact and agile. The EA 119 is the high-back version — full upper back, shoulder, and neck support. Both are eames type chairs from the same Aluminum Group family.
