DSR Shell Chair FRP Resin [Matte Black]
Reproduced furniture focused on quality and price from E-comfort.
The Shell Chair is one of the works submitted to the "Low-Cost Furniture Design Competition," co-hosted by a furniture nonprofit organization as part of MoMA's efforts to differentiate itself from other museums by collecting modern design products in 1948. It achieved an impressive second place. At that time, Charles Eames was striving to realize a new era of design that could be mass-produced using molded plywood, but the production with molded plywood proved to be extremely difficult. Eames did not give up on commercialization and successfully produced the chair using FRP, a new material at the time. The chair, produced by layering fiberglass wool with adhesives using a mold and finally shaping the exterior, was released to the world as an innovative mass-produced item. The E-comfort Shell Chair is available in six colors for the seat: black, white, gray, red, pale blue, and pale green, with options for the legs being wood legs or a rod base. This is the side shell chair with a rod base. *The product is a reproduction imported and sold by E-comfort.
