It's a knockoff if it doesn't have the right number of straps (9 on the seat, 8 on the back) or the right number of tufted squares (5x4 on each cushion), or if the cushions don't hang over the edge of the frame, or the straps don't attach the right way or the frame-ends are ground wrong or the welds aren't smooth enough, or if its measurements are substantially different from the Knoll chair. Unfortunately, though, that only works for the rea ... | |||||

| ... in Italy. The one photo that I found of a Shaf chair is similar to mine but I saw a couple major differences. At first (from photos before purchasing), I thought that my chair had 7 layers of plywood but on closer inspection looks like 8. Also, as you can see in the photos on the Ebay chair, there is a metal plate on the base of the ottoman and there are rough welds where the legs of the base connect to the cylinder. There are also capped off bolts on the underside of the arm rest. All of these factors make me think that it is probably not a licensed c ... | |||||

| This might be of interest: In regard to the post above, both Herman Miller's website and the books "Eames Design" and "The Story of Eames Furniture" by M. Neuhart say the plywood-leg chairs (DCW, LCW) were discontinued in 1957. They were reissued in 1994. The metal-leg chairs (DCM, LCM) were produced for a much longer period of time. I have both an Evans LCW and a 1950s LCW. There are differences in the dimensions and 'roundness' of the back spine. http://www.hermanmiller.com/DotCom/jsp/aboutUs/timelineDetail.jsp?timeId... | |||||

| Wow SDR...Those Spyders were sage! Especially the 1969. It's those sweet little differences that the 69 possessed...ie round sidemarker lamps, single reverse lamp, stainless grill, etc. I've wanted one for many moons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLfXzikzJvs | |||||

| ... the link - irrespective of the fact that your back/arm rests are upholstered - you will see a number of differences, including shape and how the arm rests are attached to the frame. Perhaps you do have a 675 chair which has been crudely upholstered at some point - but the chrome frame is not consistent with original examples of this chair which usually have a dark (black/grey) 'stove-enamelled' finished. http://bit.ly/kXqbuy | |||||

| Me too, Cedara ! Here are the Tate image and Chrome's image, at the same scale. Note interesting differences in color. Tate caption: Pencil, crayon and watercolour on paper on board support: 327 x 488 mm on paper, unique Thus -- not a print, but an original work ? One can see the irregular outline of the paper, mounted on board, with the title line printed (?) on the board. In Chrome's print, this paper outline is printed ? Thus, not a "print" but a reproduction of the original, with some color altered -- by the artist ? | |||||
| Need help identifying an Eames style chair as an ICF | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | Dancho | General discussion | |
| ... right. I am not that familiar with the task chair base but that might be it. The main reason that I thought that the chair was not Herman Miller is that it has the extra set of connectors on the head set. Then I saw a 100% identical chair --currently listed on ebay (keywords eames chair italy). The seller states that her chair has a sticker stating made in Italy. I can send you photos of my chair (if you provide an email address) or it might be simpler for you to check the ebay listing since they have tons of detailed photos and it is identical to mine.

| that was my first point also.. These examples of the work in context are great. I like the differences in the bases too, as it shows how much they are indeed part of each sculpture. Its hard to look at these two examples and not see that the base and sculpture are ONE. Not just a "table for a sculpture" The table IS the sculpture too. An extension of the sculpture. Forget the idea that the platform "is just a base", and then you see the importance of it in true context. Forget giving stone a higher status over wood-- Noguchi doesnt. Labeling things as BASE ... | |||||

| ... The drawer bodies should be wooden not metal. There shouldn't be a center drawer with no facing on it at all... the left and right sides don't even have the right number of drawers on them, nor do they have pull out writing surfaces. Which is to say there are many differences that can't be chalked up to 'available options,' and would have to be considered matters of production cost (legs not coming through the surface, rectangular tubing, metal drawer bodies) which would imply this isn't authentic. This isn't a question that really needs to be asked. It's p ... | |||||

Stuff I noticed by trying to carefully compare the two. The seller I bought this from said it came from an older persons estate and she believed it to be at least 25 years old or more. I trust this seller (dealt with before) but what she thinks is no guarantee on the age. Other factor is my inspection of the metal convinced me it was a couple decades old, again just my educated opinion. ... | |||||

| Thanks for your comments What do you think about my tables having hollow legs and plastic feet. Do you know/think Knoll ever have produced like this? And have these SteelCase models have come you by? It seems that they produced Knoll like models with the apparent differences in the metal base (hollow legs, plastic feet, one piece base front appearance instead of Knoll's legs vs. horizontal frame part) | |||||

| I found almost the same... I found almost the same piece on a eBay listing. Looks like part of set. There are a few differences though. The front legs are not sculpted at the meeting point. The inside is a little different as well. And I just have to say the grain on mine is better looking. Maybe this being a set can help Identify the designer. Here is the eBay listing. Item number 150580081079 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&item=1... Couple more images | |||||
