This led to what the Herman Miller Company called "America's most famous chair"- two doubly curved molded plywood components, one for the seat and the other for the back, which were connected with rubber shock mounts to the plywood and bent steel rod legs. The aristocrat of the Eames tamily is the black leather-upholstered lounge chair, but what became every man's chair was Fames' molded fiberglass stacking chair...
