The 1960s classic chair that launched a thousand imitations: that’s the EA 217 Soft Pad Office Chair on castors. You can push this chair around on integral castors, but with its sturdy, polished aluminium frame this chair is no pushover. Adjustable tilt means you can arrange the soft Italian leather cushioning exactly as you please, contouring the EA 217 for a perfect fit.

The chair featured in the video is our very popular brown aniline Italian leather.

The Full Story

Designed by world-famous 20th century designers, Charles and Ray Eames, the EA 217 Soft Pad Office Chair combines beauty with durability and remains an iconic ‘must have’ for style gurus everywhere.

The EA 217 Soft Pad Chair is part of the famous Soft Pad Group, which was designed in 1969 as a luxurious addition to the Aluminium Group collection of chairs. Taking the aluminium frame and technological innovation made famous by the Aluminium Group of chairs, the Soft Pad Group of chairs adds sumptuous, square cushions for luxury and comfort, whilst remaining true to the original minimalist silhouette.

Just like the Aluminium Group, the Soft Pad Group of chairs benefits from highly original and intelligent use of materials and technology. Husband-and-wife design team, the Eames are well-known for their ground-breaking ideas and innovative manufacturing processes. Indeed, their use of aluminium, a relatively new material in the 1950s, to design furniture was highly unusual, but led to some of the most elegant and durable chairs ever produced.

Many view the Aluminium Group of chairs as one of the greatest design achievements of the 20th century, and the collection has won numerous awards around the world. The EA 217 takes this award-winning style and design, and brings to it even more luxury and comfort.
