Eames Era

This seller, along with many others, refers to the item being from the "Eames Era". I've seen items from the 70's and 80's as well being labled this. I kinda get the feeling that the lableling is about as acurate as someone listing a 1985 RCA XL100 as vintage. In any case... what, where, and when was the Eames Era? Also, who the hell was Eames anyway????

Ray and Charles Eames were a husband and wife team of designers.

Very influential, the look of the 50's was in no small part due to them.

Acording to the IMDB she died in 1988, he may still be alive??

Ahhhh.... IC! Thanks Eric. Yes, it seems that the term does get a bit overused today.

Last paragraph said he died in August 1978.
