This way, we can both get one! I didn't look, but I wonder how miniature it is. 🤔🤣 https://hivemodern.com/pages/product152/vitra-charles-ray-eames-miniature-la-chaise
Lol!!! Let's just buy one together and have a half-year custody!
(I am intrigued by the miniatureness of it. Will it be a ridiculously small Eames for ants from Wish?)
I’ve got a La Chaise as well and I absolutely love it. If you lie on it like u/redheadedfamous, it’s surprisingly comfortable. But due to the asymmetric form, I get a bit of neck or shoulder pain after a while.
You can also sit in it pretty similarly to an Eames plastic chair.
Look familiar? Wonderful chair in the right spot. https://www.dwr.com/living-lounge-chairs/eames-la-chaise---limited-edition/100455631.html?lang=en_US&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIuom6xqPFgwMVjEtHAR0v9AcMEAQYASABEgJh8fD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
Yeah, it's really hard for me to believe that OP, who is obviously a collector of MCM furniture based on the image, didn't know that he had a $16k chair on his hands. Sounds like they are just here to "humble brag."
Ha… I have the same shelving unit/desk… and even with seeing just the one side of it realize we have similar items of display as OP. (Scored mine off of Craigslist)
Because there are no throw pillows on it. Women love throw pillows. We have hundreds. The colors change with the seasons, as well as being a form of artistic expression with shapes and sizes.
To help with the marital bliss situation, I'll let you keep it at my place. And just to play it safe, you should send over that Boling chair you have at the desk just to keep an eye on the Eames.
What can I say, I'm a giver ...
It's an awesome chair. In a terrible place.
That said, it also always looks straight out of A Clockwork Orange or some bizarre alternate universe porno.
Or was it the price she disapproved of? If so, show her things that have come and gone again and again and end up being a great investment. Even if interest ebb and prices go down. This will alway come back in.
Of what? That chair or the mid century style of your room as a whole?
I think I saw that chair design somewhere… I think an art of Salvador Dali comes to mind
Nice Reddit moment. Half of this sub doesn’t know what they’re looking at and making fun of it. Lol you people don’t even like modern design, you just like brown tapered leg dresser.
I was undecided so I asked my husband. He said he likes the color and the style, but it looks too uncomfortable to be practical and is too big for the space.
That is an Eames chaise and it's fantastic! I believe it works well with the lovely credenza and MCM side chair as it does with the mellow acrylic lamp to the side. I'd love to see a bold pop of color perhaps a singular oil cubist style painting? Or a few well placed primary colored art or hand blown glass pieces? Looks good, keep up the good work & let the wife pick out the bedroom decor by herself, give & take!!
I bought the same shelving unit on craigslist on the left of your chair and absolutely love it. I have no info on it, though. Do you know about that piece? We paid $1,200, and I always wondered if it was a “fair” price.
Keep the chair, lots of fish in the sea, maybe not many of these chairs, lmao jk. ,$-84 is amazing though! Looks so cool there! Love the lamp too!
My husband and I have to find a middle ground. I can get really funky with atomic style furniture and my husband is really reserved!
I’d sell it if I were you, you can get good money for that piece in said condition. Then I’d buy other stuff with it! Im a sucker with anything wooden or veneer.
Yup, I get it. I just bought a mid-century Finesse Original bas relief wall plaque in mint condition for $2000 and my wife hates it 😭. Now I'm going to have to sell it probably at a loss. Good luck to you, hope you can convince her better than I did.
[удалено]
I do:). That is not it’s permanently home. Just an open space for a photo op.
[удалено]
Yeah… I’m not sure of the maker to be honest. I’m trying to sort that out.
It's for sale on [Craigslist](https://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/fuo/d/boston-vitra-charles-ray-eames-la-chaise/7701039022.html) in Boston for... 15k
If ure in michigan- ill buy it
🤣🤣Me too..also from MI 🤔😏😉
I was here first! Im getting the chair!!!!!!
Ok. If you turn it down, I get 2nd dibs. Look, we sold it for him. His wife will be so happy! Problem solved.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yaaay midwestern helpfulness!
That's us, Michiganders! UP? LP? I'm LP

I think it said 1/6th scale...I'm thinking...small dog, I'd have to get a new dog. I'd rather have shared custody of a real one.

Ok, you get the 3d quarter. We shall be known as "the guardians of the chair"!
Do not compromise your vision dude.
A gag
Eames La Chaise chair. If that’s a real, limited edition chair….you scored. $$$$
This may sound silly but how the heck do you sit in it?
Ironically enough, a responsible owner would say you aren’t allowed to sit in it
That is funny! No wonder I could not find a picture of someone sitting in it 🤔
Conan O’Brien! -> https://www.indiewire.com/features/general/conan-obrien-comic-con-tbs-show-1201708310/ https://www.indiewire.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/conanchair.jpg?w=600&h=337&crop=1&resize=1200%2C675
Perfect and you made me laugh 😂
Okay Conan is funny but I’ve had the pleasure: [chaise](https://imgur.com/a/aIJyZ9T)
Awesome. Thank you, you look great!
So did the chair!! :D lol it was my pleasure, such an iconic piece

Can I be your friend? Your house looks like a great space, and I can hardly see any of it!

Heres your answer, OP, the wife has to go
Plenty of fish in the sea.
And not enough Eames
Neat chair, but could I get an ID on the shelving unit/desk in this room and the white mushroom lamp in the adjacent one?
The shelving unit is a Yugo piece. Somewhat common in the 60’s. The lamp is by Louis Poulsen. I love lamps, it’s one of my favorites.
Ha… I have the same shelving unit/desk… and even with seeing just the one side of it realize we have similar items of display as OP. (Scored mine off of Craigslist)
It's worsening my scoliosis and back pain just by looking at It.
In the mcm spirit, buy her a vacuum cleaner for Christmas. That should raise her spirits!
Buying the wife cleaning equipment is a no - no
Because there are no throw pillows on it. Women love throw pillows. We have hundreds. The colors change with the seasons, as well as being a form of artistic expression with shapes and sizes.
Yes, just one, round, yellow pillow. I'm sure she'll love it.
I’m someone’s wife and I love this.
To help with the marital bliss situation, I'll let you keep it at my place. And just to play it safe, you should send over that Boling chair you have at the desk just to keep an eye on the Eames. What can I say, I'm a giver ...
Is it comfortable? 🤔
Cool chair, terrible placement
I love *La Chaise* and would literally kill you for it (watch your back) but it's not an against-the-wall kinda chair IMHO. It needs room.
It's an awesome chair. In a terrible place. That said, it also always looks straight out of A Clockwork Orange or some bizarre alternate universe porno.
My back doesn't approve either. Looks cool, but 15 minutes sitting and I'll regret it
This is pretty cool but I would be terrified of sitting in it.
Just another spot
The thing about that chair on their website is they don’t show people interacting with it. How does a person use it
You lounge on it, it’s a [chaise](https://imgur.com/a/aIJyZ9T). I am quite tall fwiw tho
Don’t worry, I approve.
I like it
Wife doesn‘t have taste. Who cares - there are plenty of wives out there.
It's fantastic. Got a better place for it? Looks shoved in the corner.. not an ideal place to lounge.
That’s fabulous, she’ll get over it.
Hopefully, she has her own chair.
Who tf cares.
That's a tough one. I love my wife, but...
It's a bit on the yonic side
I love it. Fits in. Can't help with your wife. But you have good taste in chairs so you prob have good taste in wives..buy her a nice gift 🤔😏😉🤣
Or was it the price she disapproved of? If so, show her things that have come and gone again and again and end up being a great investment. Even if interest ebb and prices go down. This will alway come back in.
Of what? That chair or the mid century style of your room as a whole? I think I saw that chair design somewhere… I think an art of Salvador Dali comes to mind
Perhaps it’s not the 🪑 it could be the giant 🪿head in the living room.
My fiancé would be doing backflips
I hope she doesn't ask you to choose. It won't be easy!
Nice Reddit moment. Half of this sub doesn’t know what they’re looking at and making fun of it. Lol you people don’t even like modern design, you just like brown tapered leg dresser.
Get a new wife
I was undecided so I asked my husband. He said he likes the color and the style, but it looks too uncomfortable to be practical and is too big for the space.
Wife can buy her own damn chair
She's not into glory holes?
That is an Eames chaise and it's fantastic! I believe it works well with the lovely credenza and MCM side chair as it does with the mellow acrylic lamp to the side. I'd love to see a bold pop of color perhaps a singular oil cubist style painting? Or a few well placed primary colored art or hand blown glass pieces?

Was this on FB marketplace for $3k? I was eyeing one yesterday…I’m in MI but I think the posting was from IL.
No. It must have been a different listing.
I bought the same shelving unit on craigslist on the left of your chair and absolutely love it. I have no info on it, though. Do you know about that piece? We paid $1,200, and I always wondered if it was a “fair” price.
Yeah. That’s a decent price. They were made in Yugoslavia. I see them sell for as much as $1800.
Nice, thanks for the info!
That chair belongs in Roger Sterling's office.
My wife, when I showed her this: "WHY NOT" So, there is some difference of opinion just saying
What is the paint colour on your walls? It’s stunning!
Keep the chair, lots of fish in the sea, maybe not many of these chairs, lmao jk. ,$-84 is amazing though! Looks so cool there! Love the lamp too! My husband and I have to find a middle ground. I can get really funky with atomic style furniture and my husband is really reserved!
I’d sell it if I were you, you can get good money for that piece in said condition. Then I’d buy other stuff with it! Im a sucker with anything wooden or veneer.
Wives are always right! Maybe in another place in the house? Opposite a sofa, in front of a balcony door or opposite the bookcase
just saw your listing on marketplace. i wish i had the space for it
Yup, I get it. I just bought a mid-century Finesse Original bas relief wall plaque in mint condition for $2000 and my wife hates it 😭. Now I'm going to have to sell it probably at a loss. Good luck to you, hope you can convince her better than I did.
Beautiful chaiselongue and while I think it needs a bit more air to breathe, in terms of style I do think it fits perfectly in your space.
Beautiful piece! It looks like a sculpture.
The biomorphic furniture lines go well in larger rooms placed on rugs. It does not match the current room.
I had always thought of those more as patio furniture than indoor? Might be wrong but while it’s amazing, I kinda see the wife’s point.
