The new Starkins Eames style office chair range.

Introducing our new Starkins range of office chairs.

Brand new to The Office Chair Shop is a fabulous new range of chairs which are based on an immensely popular design which first appeared in  the 20th century.

The chairs in question are the Starkins High Back, StarkinsMedium Back and Starkins Cantilever
which all feature chrome framing, soft faux leather upholstery and contoured backs for added comfort.   These stylish chairs are based on the popular range of seating designed by the Eames family of America who produced works from various media between the 1930s and  1970s.

Charles Ormond Eames (1907 – 1978) and Bernice Alexandra “Ray” Eames (1912-1988) were married in 1941 and throughout the 50s 60s and 70s produced lots of major contributions to modern architecture and furniture.

The “Eames Aluminium Group” of chairs on which the Starkins is based first appeared in 1958. It was originally manufactured with mesh but this was quickly discontinued and over the years different materials have been used – the most iconic of which is the black leather version .

Ironically, although this furniture range is considered an icon of office furniture it was originally commissioned as  an outdoor seating range for the home . This idea quickly vanished however and the chair found its more familiar setting in the office. A place where it has remained for over 50 years!

The Facebook Social Media revolution for theofficechairshop.co.uk


Continuing with our quest for global domination we have launched a new Facebook shop.
Facebook are obviously huge so when we were approached about setting up a store it seems a great idea and and didn't hesitate.








It is a toe in the water at the moment so i haven't loaded it with too many products, but now we have proved it we will add more and more products.


It's a great idea from Facebook, as you would expect.
