Here is one of my tresures from today out picking. A Vintage Herman Miller Eames RAR rocker. It's a little out of my scope of expertise. My questions are --- Is this a Zenith rocker? , what would be the approx. production year of this rocker? Is this the rarer color that they call Lemon - even though the interior of the shell is darker due to age & use - the underside is a lighter yellow color. Is It Right? I believe it is in very good & original condition other than the darker shell interior color & 1 bolt that has a defferent head - rockers seem right - frame is good - pads shocks etc. - If not please let me know it looks pretty original to me. But like i said - I need everyone's help on this - just beyond my knowledge of modern. Many Thanks in advance for your time & efforts. Below are the pictures of the rocker. Thanks Again. rbjr

Zenith
Looks all original to me, except maybe the shock mount washers.
Zenith production, second generation, early 1950s. Color is Parchment.
