Herman miller Eames shell rocker

By karissa.goodrich, 4 May, 2010
Description

My grandparents bought this and gave it to me when I went to college. I clearly didn't know I had a valuable item at the time, so it got abused a bit. Everything except the wooden rockers is original. Other than the binding separating in one place and the few scratches and scuffs on the leather, it is in fair to good condition.
