With original cushion, removed from the Eagle's Nest by a member of the British armed forces just after the war.

This exact chair is visible in period footage of the Eagle’s Nest, during occupation by the 101st Airborne Division in May 1945. Notice the matching woodgrain patterns, below, which would have been unique to each chair. https://www.youtube.com/wat
