Vintage Light Ochre Rocking chair by Charles & Ray Eames 1960s

Exposed fiberglass rocking chair in excellent condition. Vintage original model, Herman Miller edition, 1970. The Rocking Chair also called Armchair RAR (for Rocking Armchair Rod base) was created by the Eames in 1948 using fiberglass-reinforced polyester resin to create a one-piece shell. This rocking chair was first presented in 1950 at the MoMa's Low Cost Furniture Design Competition in New York City. It met with great success there and was originally published by the Herman Miller company until the end of the 1970s. Alongside Herman Miller's production in the USA, Vitra has been producing polypropylene models in Europe since 1972. The chair is also available in a version with legs. There are two different legs: the DAR model (chrome-plated aluminium frame) and the DAW model (wooden legs).
