Description
The Ölddesign gallery has restored some Eames lounge chairs (Herman Miller / Mobilier International /Vitra): wood, leather, foam, hardware and cushions.
The seat, ottoman and back cushions of the Eames Lounge chair rest on a tear-resistant perforated structure that allows the cushions to be aerated and air to escape.
The leather and the closure are sewn directly onto this plate.
It was difficult for us to find this cardboard plate which after decades of use can deteriorate at the seams.
If a complete or partial change of the upholstery is carried out, it must also be changed.
The Ölddesign gallery therefore decided to have this invisible but key piece of the upholstery part of the armchair produced itself.
This part is manufactured at our premises in Lyon, identical to the original part and the original material used for Herman Miller Europe by Mobilier international. We absolutely wanted to go through a short circuit, with a quality material worthy of the original.
The raw material is based on very high density hard cardboard “Made in France”
3 plate models are available:
-The head file
-The low backrest
-the seat
The models are supplied with eyelets.
Snaps are not supplied, you can unhook the original ones and reuse them.
Price of a plate (seat, ottoman or backrest): 90 euros excluding delivery
To restore an Eames chair alone, you will need one seat plate and two back plates.
Delivery throughout France: Price according to quantity
The American Herman Miller Eames lounge chair model has been using a plastic plate since 1971 with long clips.
Before 1971, the Eames lounge chair had this famous cardboard plate with the round snaps.
It is possible to change, of course, the plastic plate with the cardboard plate. It will then be necessary to install the round pressures.
The European Eames lounge chair model (International Furniture, Herman Miller or Vitra) has always been equipped with the cardboard plate.
The American production of Herman Miller Lounge Chairs started the production of plastic backs in October 1971, together with the long black cushion clips. Before that date, and for European production until today, they used cardboard with round clips.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 13th August 2024
Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.
To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.
Can I cancel an order?
If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.
To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?
All items at Vinterior are special and unique, and we understand that once they are at the Customer's place, they might not fit the space or just don’t feel right. This is why we offer a market-leading 100-day returns policy for purchases from Professional sellers after goods have been received by customers based in the UK and European Union. This means Vinterior customers can return their items for any reason up to 100 days from the day they were received.
If purchased from an Individual seller, a 14-day return policy applies from the day it was received.
Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
How you will be refunded?
Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.
If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
What can't be returned?
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
