This Eames office chair replica comes in black leather, with genuine aniline leather on the seat and the front of the backrest, and is delivered free to 25 countries.
The Eames office chair replica shown here is the EA117 ribbed model in black leather — the low-back, thin-pad version of the iconic Eames Aluminium Group. Decomica’s Eames office chair replica recreates its slim ribbed cushioning and polished-aluminium frame, a sleek, professional seat for any modern office at a fraction of the original’s price.
Why choose the Decomica Eames office chair replica
We have specialised in mid-century replicas for years, and the ribbed EA117 is one of our best-selling office chairs. Every chair is inspected by our own team before dispatch — we check the leather grade, the weld points on the aluminium frame and the action of the swivel and tilt — because the difference between a good Eames office chair replica and a poor one lives in those details.
Key features
- Low-back ribbed thin-pad cushioning in genuine black leather
- Polished chromed-aluminium frame and five-star base with a mirror finish
- Height-adjustable gas lift, 360° swivel and a lockable tilt mechanism
- High-resilience foam and smooth-rolling chrome-top castors
Comfort & who it’s for
The slim ribbed backrest gives the EA117 a lighter, more minimal look than the padded soft-pad models, while the adjustable height and tilt keep it comfortable through a full working day. It suits home offices, meeting rooms and design-led workspaces where a clean silhouette matters.

Eames office chair replica: frequently asked questions
Is the black leather on the Eames EA117 genuine?
The parts you sit on and lean against, the seat and the front of the backrest, are genuine aniline leather. The parts you do not touch, the outer back and the underside, are a colour-matched PU leather, so the chair looks uniform from every side.
Should I choose the low back or the high back?
This is the low back version of the Eames EA117. A low back (EA117/EA217) suits shorter sessions and gives a cleaner profile at the desk, while a high back (EA119/EA219) supports the upper back and shoulders during longer working days.
Can I get soft castors for wooden or tiled floors?
Yes. We fit soft, floor-friendly castors free of charge on request; just write it in the order notes at checkout, for example “please fit soft castors”.
How is the chair delivered?
Delivery is free and tracked to the EU (except Bulgaria, Cyprus, Greece, Malta and Romania), the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Norway, and normally takes 5 to 8 working days. For the UK, Switzerland and Norway, any import VAT or customs charges are paid by the recipient.
What warranty and returns do I get?
Every chair carries a 2-year warranty, and you have 14 days from delivery to return it if it is not right for you.
Is the Eames EA117 made by Vitra or Herman Miller?
No. The Eames EA117 is an independent reproduction of the design. It is not made by, affiliated with or endorsed by Vitra or Herman Miller, which is why it costs a fraction of a licensed original.
