I need a sharp eye here because I can't tell if this is an original or not. There's no specific info to accompany this estate sale image.

Something about it just doesn't seem like the real HM model but then again it could also be the quality of the photo.

I may try to move on this if I can afford it but knowing if it were a knock off may help me decide if to leave work or not to find it.

See what ya think,
nate

Total knockoff
Albeit a good one. The back is too upright, the armrests only have a single welting, the proportion of the backrest and the headrest is wrong, and if you look between the backrest and the seat you will see a metal bar - not present on the originals.
In good condition this chair retails in Boston for about $800-$1000, especially if it is upholstered in leather. More or less depending on demand.
