Additional Information
In addition to creating an intricate brass lighting fixture and the cabinetwork for the church, An Eames Primer explains that the pews “may have been Charles’s first experience with producing furniture in volume.” The oak pews were designed in the arts and crafts style, with one unique “Eames” flourish. There’s an extra wood layer on the back of the pews, which provides gentle lumbar support.
At the edge of each row of pews is a cutout cross, which echoes the shape of the church’s original “Stations of the Cross,” which Charles also designed. There are also several solid oak stools in the arts and crafts style, with cutouts in the shape of a cross or a fish.
