Eames Chair DSX by Vitra RE

Vitra DSX EamesDesign: Charles and Ray Eames, 1950

Since the beginning of 2024, the seat shells of the Eames Plastic Chairs have been made from a special material: recycled post-consumer plastic. The source of this recycled material is new - it comes from the German household recycling collection "Gelber Sack", mainly from used packaging. It reduces climate-damaging emissions compared to conventional plastic and uses significantly less energy. Another characteristic aspect of the new seat shells are the delicate speckles, especially in the lighter colors, which arise due to the composition of the recycled material.

The classic Vitra DSX
The organic shape of the seat shell combined with a classic four-legged frame. That is the Eames Plastic Chair DSX (Dining Side Chair X-Base).

Versatile

In the series of endless combination possibilities, this Eames Plastic Chair captivates with its classic and restrained expression. The timeless elegance of the seat shell, in combination with the four-legged frame, is suitable for a wide variety of uses.

From an inviting visitor chair, to a special eye-catcher in the living room, to an all-rounder for all other living and working spaces, everything is possible.

Ergonomics

The Eames DSX chair is characterised by its ergonomic features, designed for maximum comfort and support. One of the most important features is the anatomical shape of the seat shell, which adapts perfectly to the contours of the human body. This enables an optimal sitting position and reduces pressure on the hips and back.

The backrest of the DSX chair is also designed to be supportive and provides pleasant support for the entire back area. This promotes an upright sitting posture and relieves pressure on the spine, which is particularly beneficial during longer periods of sitting.

Another important factor is the chair's appropriate seat height, which ensures comfortable positioning of the legs and optimal blood circulation. This minimises the risk of muscle tension and circulatory problems.

These ergonomic features of the Eames DSX chair help make it suitable for both short and long periods of sitting. Whether for short meetings or long work sessions, the chair provides excellent comfort and support for the body.

Sitting outdoors

Would you like to use your DSX outdoors? The model with powder-coated base and without upholstery is outdoor-ready! A great choice for the garden and terrace.

When it comes to colour design, the entire series leaves nothing to be desired. As with the other Eames Plastic Chairs, you can choose from a wide range of colours for the DSX. You can complete your personal favourite piece with the choice of optional seat cushions and full cushions in high-quality fabrics and great colours.

Charles and Ray Eames have created an impressive series of chairs that exemplify the timelessness of a furniture classic.

In addition to the DSX, you can find other models such as DAR, DAW, DSR, DSW and RAR here in the shop.
