Do you know if it's authentic?
I have seen some of the stools listed as "in the style of" previously.
Here is architonic's listing.

Thanx for the reaction, yes...
Thanx for the reaction, yes i'm sure it's an authentic chair of Perriand... He's labeled with the date and is exactly the same chair...

Hi, as always, what something is worth is really what someone is willing to pay for it. And as you may well know, it matters through which channels it has been sold.
Concretely, in this case: On ebay a Charlotte Perriand chair will usually fetch somewhere around 300 euro, a more prestig. auction or seller may ask 600 euro for it. But again, it depends on where you sell/buy it, how quickly you want to sell/ buy it, as well as some sheer random luck of fate.

In the
bottom photo, the rivets on one side are different from those on the other. Could this be the result of a repair ?

This picture is not my picture... It was a picture from a website, just to show you all what kind of chair i possess. My chair is the same type. It is possible that they fixed the chair on the photo... I don't know.
They've bidden 300 euro for the chair... Is this a realistic price for ONE chair?
Thanx

I have a pair of these...
I have a pair of these chairs that I bought about 10 years ago for £70 (about 80euros). A few years later I spotted some in a shop in Spittalfields Market in London priced at £250 each. Having done some research on them since they really do seem to vary in price but I would say that 300euro is a little on the low side ( add another 100 on and you should have a fair price in the European market)
That being said they are going for over $1000 in the USA(NY/LA markets).
If (and I have no intention of doing so) I decided to sell them I would personally be expecting to hold out for at least £800 for the 2 or be trying to think of how I could sell them in the USA.

Found this thread when...
Found this thread when researching a pair I've just found. ( paid a price, so not blowing off about finding them for nothing, just felt the need to tell someone I own a pair ).
As for current, up to date prices. I found them north of me priced at about a £ 1000 each in Harrogate, ok restored and £ 550 each ( set of six ) around Manchester, good original. Can't guess what you'd now pay south in London ?

There is no evidence that these chairs were designed by Perriand.
In the 60s she took part in the design of the ski resorts of Les Arcs in Savoie and selected the furnishings for the apartments. These chairs were chosen by Perriand but actually not designed by her.

Close enough.
Close enough. If they're good enough for Charlotte Perriand. They're good enough for me.
625 ebay ! What condition ? Seem to find most where the leather looks overworked, dark and oily looking.
