Eames Lounge Custom Matched Cherry Lower Backrest. A replacement lower backrest for the iconic Rosewood Eames Lounge made in real hardwood cherry to perfectly match the original broken backrest. The lower backrest is prone to breaking when the shockmounts fail. This is a replacement lower backrest custom made to match your original backrest. We take great pride in manufacturing you components which meet the same high standards as the vintage originals. The inner plys are maple and will darken with age; just as the originals. The backrest is custom made to match your chair using the original panel, which you send in. We are able to ensure the most accurate match to the grain pattern, finish, color, tone, and sheen of the original panel by having it there while we make the new panel. All wood oxidizes and changes over time, sometimes also dramatically fading depending on sun exposure. If you are outside of the United States, and therefore sending in the original panel is not financially possible, we can match the broken ear as an alternative - but please be aware this adds extra time to the process as it is much more time consuming to match such a small reference piece. The images below show the expert accuracy of our matching process.

The four mounting holes for the back braces are pre-drilled. We will also transfer the clips from the broken backrest to the new one. Shockmounts are included and installed. You will also want to be sure that the seat shockmouts are replaced. It is advantageous to send in your seat panel with your lower backrest in order to have these replaced by Modern Conscience. Alternatively, if you are comfortable with these types of very challenging repairs, you could do this on your own by purchasing a pair of shockmounts along with your new lower backrest.
