Can anybody tell these are Eames chairs or Burke chiars?

No label on the chairs.

The title of these chairs were Burke chair at an auction.

What is "Burke" chairs?

I thought Burke chairs are knock off chairs and not Eames.

I am confused..

Burke was a company that made a lot of informal dinette sets, mostly in mod styles popular in the 50s-80s or however long they were around. They copied Saarinen's tulip table & chairs but with visible differences (easiest to spot if you compare them to the real thing).

I don't think they made this type of molded fiberglass chair with an Eiffel tower base, though. But I might be wrong about that.

I suspect this is also not by Burke.
