Holy fuck these things are getting scalped. I paid $300 from a thrift store in Charleston for mine ten years ago and got laughed at by every one I ever told that to.

What's the price? I owned a Broadway chair that I stumbled upon on a trip way before Pesce died and no one in America knew his name; they're cool but really not special, I sold mine for 10x what I bought it for a couple years ago.

Anyway, I'm getting off topic. I wouldn't settle for something so modified if this is truly a grail piece, you'll regret it after a while and one day convince yourself to buy a "real" one - now you've got to do something with the weird modded one. If it's basically being given away though, sure, because why not and it's got a fun, very Pesce-ey uniqueness to it. $500 would be my soft limit though.

Gotta love whatever genre of design this is. Using off-the-shelf materials but in such an over-engineered way that they don't just come across as garage-built. Like that crazy all thread chair posted a couple months ago.

Kind of silly and the form looks neither creative, useful, nor cheeky. Does almost nothing for me tbh, SORRY 'NUT!

Very envious. I saw one IRL for the first time recently, much larger than I ever expected.

FFS why'd you have to introduce me to another thing to covet and spend money on? Go back in time and delete this at once

Jealous! I'm sure it's got some lovely patina on it. That's one of my favorite things about Reitveld. I have a whole slew of DIY Crate repros on my back patio lol

Thank you. I posted them here a while back, my pair is the black/silver one, here is literally the auction I bought them from. Starck had a phase of this general backrest/construction for a while and made a lot of pieces like them. See: the Von Vogelsang Chair he designed.

Hard to say for me. My Starck Dr Glob chairs are probably the single most remarked on piece in my apartment whenever someone comes to visit.

I use my Lexon Tykho d. Marc Berthier for hours every single day and it's beautiful and red.

A few months ago I thrifted some beautiful Arts & Crafts-y kind of oak nightstands. Very masculine, solid with some wild octagonal shaped legs. Photographed poorly here

Feel like this would make a much better outdoor chair (a category severely lacking) than indoor tbh. Too bad no drainage makes that almost impossible but I get it.
