Alphaville Design markets a very accurate stainless steel knock-off. It's made in China, but it's solid stainless (not hollow). It has four holes drilled in the top bars for the spacer cups. Search eBay for "Alphaville Design Mies Style Coffee Table" and you'll find a retailer in California.
markings on barcelona table
I purchased recently a barcelona table. I assume it is stainless steal because the metal is non-magnetic. It has 4 holes to hold the very heavy glass top.
