i think that you will find that most of the boomerang desks that have sold over the last 10 years have been knock offs - mostly masquerading as the genuine article with the same price tag. i see them for sale every now and again

reproduction ?
Hello,
Please, Could you try to find a original piece, not a reproduction !

Here's a vintage one for sale
Stop being fooled by fake Calka boomerang desk, If you are looking for a vintage one check this link, the seller offers refund garantee if you have any doubt about the authenticity. True thing is that clients do not want to pay 5000 euros on eBay, that's the point. This same desk by WRIGHT's Chicago would certainly reach at least 30 000 dollars.

The copy Calka desks have been doing the rounds (to my knowledge) for at least 10 years so I guess some are getting quite old now. These "tributes to Calka" (ahem!) were (are?) the particular wheeze of a French dealer in London who had a "connection" to some kind of plastic moulding business...99% of Calka desks circulating will be from this source.

Surprised
In this forum, you talk about fake boomerang desks. I'm the artist's son, I've checked as many desk as possible, but none of it was fake. I'm reffering to an original one I'm sure about.
Could anyone tell me more? Thank you.
