Restore the Integrity, Comfort, and Value of Your Iconic Chair
Is your Eames Lounge Chair sagging, creaking, or collapsing in on itself? Are the shells knocking against each other or the arms starting to separate? These are classic signs of shock mount failure—a common issue in vintage and even newer Eames Lounge Chairs.
The Eames Lounge Chair was designed with four rubber shock mounts that allow the chair to flex and float. Over time, these mounts harden, dry out, or detach from the wood shells, compromising both function and structure. Improper repairs (especially those involving screws through the shells) can severely devalue your investment.
At Hobbs Modern, we specialize in professional shock mount replacement for any year of production, using only authentic parts. Our service includes:
Full disassembly and reassembly of your chair
Precision installation of all four factory-original shock mounts
Expert knowledge of how the arm brackets and shells must align—something only experienced restorers should handle
Price includes parts and labor for all four shock mounts. No shortcuts. No hardware store glue jobs. Just museum-quality craftsmanship that respects the value and engineering of this iconic piece.
We can still help. Many clients ship us their chairs for service. We’ll provide detailed disassembly and packing instructions so your chair arrives safely and is restored with care.
