The Eames Coffee Table was designed by Charles and Ray Eames in 1949 as a unique piece for their residence in Los Angeles. Ever since, the table has contributed to the iconic decor of this historic home interior. The rectangular table top, which gives a simultaneous impression of simplicity and luxury, was originally covered in gold leaf. In the following years, Charles and Ray Eames produced two more of these tables, but with a marble top. Its dowel-leg base is a variation of the wooden base found on the timeless Eames Plastic chairs.

The re-edition of the Eames Coffee Table, which was developed by Vitra in cooperation with the Eames Office, evokes the spirit of the early one-off pieces: fabricated in exquisite materials, this high-quality coffee table is both precious object and utilitarian furnishing. The square or rectangular table tops are made of palisander veneer, marble or solid American walnut. The base, combining black wooden legs with metal cross-struts, provides a stable understructure and emphasises the understated elegance of the Eames Coffee Table.
