Hi,

I recently bought what appears to be an Eames lounger from an estate sale. It's proportions and everything appear to be in-line with the original design, however, it has two smooth circles on either side of the chair. I've read that Eames never has visible screws so thought it was a replica. However, I slid of the back top leather piece and saw that Finland 1979 had been stamped. Does anyone know what this chair might be, if it is a well-known replica or authentic?

Thanks,
Claire

It appears to me that the chair on the third picture is an original one from Vitra that is fixed in an ugly way under the arms, however the first and the third picture seem to be knockoffs, cause the headrest is placed a little high, and also the whole headrest is to big. Also the feet looks kinda off to me.
I think it is a knockoff, or an original mixed with unoriginal parts (feet, headrest)
