Black aniline dye on wood, chrome finish legs, domes of silence glides
This is an excellent example of a 1952 DCM with its original black aniline dye. The Eames Office chose to dye the wood, instead of painting it, because of their commitment to honesty: What's wood should always be revealed as wood. With dye, the grain of the wood is expressed through the dark finish.
