The Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman are considered among the most significant and collectible furniture designs of the 20th century. When the set was introduced in 1956, there was nothing else like it. The design was completely new and merged comfort with a clean, yet welcoming aesthetic. Today, the pair remains a true icon of modern design. Built by hand, just as it was originally, the meticulously constructed set includes rich wood veneer shells with supple leather upholstered seating.

Since its beginning in 1905 as the Michigan Star Furniture Company and its 1923 re-branding marking the start of a new design era, Herman Miller has established an internationally recognized name for itself across the design industry. Boasting a wide array of pieces that range from being Mid-Century Modern iconic to being highly functional for the modern person, the company continues to remain at the top of the industry's list of notable and influential brands. While Herman Miller lighting brings a practical eye to the modern workspace, the brand doesn't lose site of what modern design should look like. While a portion of their lighting assortment is centralized on multi-functionalism wrapped in a sleek design, the brand George Nelson Bubble Lamp Collection encapsulates the timelessness of Mid-Century Modern lighting that have withstood the test of time and continue offer a modern touch to any space. Between the variation of sleek profiles for Herman Miller's table lamps to the classy designs of the bubble lamps, Herman Miller does well to cover the range of lighting tastes between sleek functionalism to modern timelessness.
