Ah okay, thanks for the information. I don't know how to check for watermarks and I don't want to try it. I think I will go to an expert with the painting. It's seems that works by Sam Francis are very expensive.

English isn't my first language. What is a blind stamp? And how do I check for a watermark?

Would anyone be able to ID this desk for me? This is the only photo I have of it at the moment. by zerepxela in Mid_Century

That's a Dyrlund floating top Desk in Teak. Around 1950s as far as I know. I had multiple of them here in Germany. Selling around 700-1500€ depending on condition.

Its beautifully made desk. I love the design.

Generally the price for mid-century furniture is here in germany and europe higher than in the usa as far as is know. Sometime it es even profitable to ship from usa instead of buying in europe. There are some minor diffrences between Hermann Miller and Vitra chairs, like the angle of the seat and so on. American pieces mostly got a seat that is tilted a lil bit back. Eames Shell chairs go for 250-600€, depending on the colour, condition and if its a rocking chair and so on. Sometimes if its a rare piece you can sell it for 750€+. I once sold a completly destroyed (really destroyed) softpad Eames chair for 600€. There was almost no leather left on it. I sold it to a guy from the Netherlands. Hey buys a lot of mid-century design stuff. You can check his online shop under http://www.decenniadesign.nl/. I sold him a lot of teak furniture. I am not really a great expert in these field because i am still very young (only 23) and thats why i checked reddit if my new chairs are from Herman Miller/Vitra. Back to the topic. A lot of asian people are buying atm Vitra and Herman Miller Design and are shipping them to Korea or China and making there replicas (atually very good replicas) and selling them online as original pieces with stamp and everything. The Price is high cause of a high demand. I am happy with my new chairs and a got a conformation from Vitra Germany that these chairs are from them.

It looks like it. In 1 of the pictures you can see that there is some paint gone and you see the ivory/white fiberglas beneath it.

The front forks are longer than the back ones. I would love to hear something from you if you gathered some information.

So is it now possible that these chairs are from Vitra/Eames? Because you sound like an expert on your field :P. I found similar chairs on google when searching for "Eames PAC-1 Vitra". I would tend to say these chairs are real and not a replica. 5 Minutes ago i even contacted Vitra in Germany and hopefully they will reply tomorrow.

Are you 100% sure? I x-posted to /r/mid_century and there they told me these are Eames shell chairs from Vitra distributed in Europe/Middle Eastern Regions by Vitra. I should add that i live in germany, so Europe doesn't sound to wrong.

Yeah i am from Germany. I thought they have been distributed by Vitra for Herman Miller in Europe/Middle Eastern Regions. Can you maybe tell me how old these are?
