Herman Miller Nelson Swag Leg Armchair
The combination of the three designers is a rare thing in the world of industrial design; the willing and nearly wholesale incorporation of someone elses aesthetic or technical achievement with no obfuscation. Not only did Nelson have no problem with publicly borrowing elements of the chair from Charles and Ray, Charles and Ray openly allowed him to borrow. This was the essence of their friendship, but also of the design spirit that permeated Herman Miller at the time; the ideas were all out there...

Nelson® Swag Leg Armchair
The Nelson Swag Leg Chair is one of the more elegant and classic examples of modern design in the Herman Miller catalogue. Its smooth surfaces and beautiful, tapered legs gathered in a kind of bouquet underneath the seat produce a beguiling and undeniably lovely effect. It's also quite comfortable to boot, which is an improvement on the molded plastic chairs of Charles and Ray Eames that the chair closely resembles. As with the rest of the Nelson series, the chair is largely a showcase for the famous...

Nelson Swag Leg Armchair
We named this furniture for the process that created the distinctive legs because designer George Nelson started with this idea: "Wouldn't it be beautiful to have some kind of sculptured leg on a piece of furniture?" How could that be done without wood and hand-carving tools? Using pressure to taper and curve a metal tube-the process called swaging-proved a success.

Nelson Swag Leg Desk & Herman Miller Nelson Swag Leg Desk
This contemporary classic desk is open and freeing of space without losing the structural integrity common to desks. The process of "swaging" (using pressure to taper and curve metal) proved the best way to produce the legs, which are 16-gauge steel and have adjustable glides. Nelson added solid walnut stretchers that bolt to the legs for a stable, durable base.

Nelson™ Swag Leg Armchair Nelson Swag Leg Desk
George Nelson began with the legs when designing his Swag Leg Group (1958). He insisted that they be made of metal and machine formed, and discovered his solution in "swaging," a method of using pressure to taper and curve a metal tube. For the Swag Leg Chair, the question became how to connect the four legs, and through Nelson's own engineering the resulting base appears deceptively simple. To create the chair shell, Nelson got permission from Charles and Ray Eames to use a patented process they...
