Individual Characteristics

The colour of the shell is a little aged, being a bit more faded than some examples, but this has helped give this shell its very own character which also accentuates the fibrous finish of it.

The three dots indicate that this shell was produced by 3M for Herman Miller between 1955 and 1957.

Investment Details

Eames Side Shells are great investment pieces, but how much of an investment pieces relies upon multiple factors; the age of the shell, the rarity of the colour, the manufacturer, the originality of the base and, of course, the condition of the shell. The shell is in a good, gently used condition and though the colour has slightly faded, it should still prove to be a good investment piece.
