Molded to "receive the body," the dyed-through shells are replete with surface variation and tell-tale fiberglass striations. Two available; priced individually.


CHARLES (1907–1978) & RAY (1912–1988) EAMES were a married team of American industrial designers. Their creativity and drive helped shape the trajectory of the 20th century in the US. The couple's lives and work represent many of the seminal developments of the post-war period: the West Coast's emergence as a cultural hub, the shift away from manufacturing toward the production of information, and the expanding global reach of American culture.

The Eameses viewed modern design as a catalyst for social change. Their evolution from furniture designers into cultural ambassadors spoke not only to their boundless talent but also to the overlap between their interests and America's national agenda. In an era of uniquely shared objectives, the Eameses partnered with both the federal government and top businesses to spearhead commercial modernization.


Begun in the late 1940s, the partnership between the Eameses and the manufacturer HERMAN MILLER would evolve into what is the most legendary collaboration in the history of modern furniture. The extensive range of designs that were produced serves as a testament to this fact.


Whoever said that pleasure wasn't functional? – CHARLES & RAY EAMES


HERMAN MILLER was founded in 1905 as the Star Furniture Co. in Zeeland, a town near Grand Rapids in western Michigan. Zeeland had been settled primarily by Dutch immigrants, many of whom brought with them a legacy of skills in the crafting of fine furniture. By 1900, Grand Rapids and environs had become a hub for its production.

In 1919, Star Furniture was renamed the Michigan Star Furniture Co., and Dirk Jan "DJ" DePree (1891-1990), originally hired as a clerk, became its new president. Along with a small group of local businessmen, DePree and his father-in-law, Herman Miller, purchased 51% of the company in 1923 and rechristened it HERMAN MILLER.

The company had historically been a manufacturer of high-end, traditional-style home furnishings based on modified European designs. With the arrival of the Great Depression, DePree was forced to consider new products to survive in a shrinking market. In 1931, he was approached by the industrial designer Gilbert Rohde (1894-1944), who reportedly entered the showroom unannounced. DePree listened to Rohde's ideas and, attracted by his straightforward approach, hired him to design a new line of furniture. Rohde speculated that the shrinking size of modern homes would inspire a demand for a smaller, simpler, and lighter furniture style, which DePree referred to as "more honest" than that of traditional pieces. So began the transformation of HERMAN MILLER into the modern furniture juggernaut it would become.

HERMAN MILLER debuted its new line at the Century of Progress exposition in Chicago. In 1941, the company opened showrooms in Chicago and New York City. Under Rohde's supervision, HERMAN MILLER entered the office furniture market in 1942 with the introduction of the modular Executive Office Group (EOG).

Rohde died in 1944 and was replaced by architect George Nelson (1908-1986), who joined the firm as its director of design in 1945. Nelson was to have enormous influence upon HERMAN MILLER, not only for his personal design contributions, but also for the talented designers he recruited to its ranks—Isamu Noguchi (1904–1988), Charles (1907–1978) & Ray (1912–1988) Eames, Robert Propst (1921–2000), and textile designer Alexander Girard (1907–1993). HERMAN MILLER was incorporated in 1960 and remains in business to this day as one of the world's top producers of office furniture.

It doesn’t stay in
The pipe keeps coming out. Not worth the money. Not sturdy to hold a top table.

Good finish, poor hardware.
Set screws are poor quality and are sometimes powdercoated on the exposed threads. Leads to striped hex sockets and inability to tighten properly. Durable finish as evidenced by no visible damage after throwing parts across the shop in frustration. Ended up running self tapping screws thru parts to complete assembly.

Fantastic for furniture making
Size: 16 x 18 Inch, Size: 16 x 18 Inch
Frankly, I didn't know what to expect... But these turned out to be exactly what I was looking and hoping for. These table legs were so easy to assemble. They come with adjustable feet so you can have a level table no matter your tabletop shape or floor situation. Assembly is done with a simple Allen key. Printed instructions are included with simple diagrams that are so easy to follow. Also, the seller provided all the hardware needed and more! They provided multiple black screws of different sizes that fit through the top holes of the legs, making it so easy to screw the leg base into the table top (use an electric drill with a Philips head for that). I had zero issues with any of the hardware provided. The base has a nice smooth black powder coat application on the metal. Shipping was so quick too. Seriously, if you are looking for a low cost, easy to assemble, good looking, and adjustable end table base, get this. I ended up making plant stands with these using some tree slices I had as you can see in my photo. 10/10 highly recommend.
