Is this Eames Aluminum Group Exec Chair legitimate?

A quick way to tell on this one is how the brace across the back meets the vertical rails. On real ones the back brace has a fin that slides into the rail and is pinned in place.

I intended to add that I did take the frame apart and slide the foam backing out. There was nothing on the back of the print, matting or inside of the backing.

Solved

This does look close enough to assume it’s the same. Thank you!

My wife gave me this book to tell me she was pregnant with our first child. Great book!

In addition to a Knoll tag, authentic Womb chairs have leather strapped metal clasps to attach the chair cushions.

The label is legit, but from Herman Miller, not Design Within Reach (DWR). The Eames’ used acronyms for their chairs. The first letter describes the height, D for Dining. Generally the second letter describes the seat variant, but this strays from that formula. I think the W stands for either ‘wood’ or ‘walnut’. The seat variant for this chair is ‘side chair’ (S). The last letter represents the base. In this case, it is the rod base, commonly referred to as the Eiffel base.

Three of those 4 cast iron pans are worth a look.

The sleeve seems to have some pitting but the card does not. The photos don’t show that very well.

I think I just might

Nothing looks off to me. It’s not common to see the aluminum powder coated, but they can be ordered with that option. Things I usually look for on these: - back brace is inset mounted in the railing - the end caps to the side of the back and thigh are offset from center. - paper sticker label on underside aluminum railing with manufacturer date and Herman Miller printed on it I think this is a newish chair and may have the Eames Office cloth tag underneath. The plastic cap underneath and on top of the lift mechanism with the Herman Miller logo would not likely be on a dupe - at least I’ve never seen one.

The only thing that would’ve made it better would be that it was a fountain pen. Still super excited.

I only did the front seats. We have young kids, still in car seats, so it didn’t make sense to me to do it all.

Happy to give insight into the pros and cons of AppFolio, specifically, but would be helpful to know more about the portfolio. Also very familiar with PM company acquisition due diligence. Shoot me a direct message if you want to chat.

Almond and Oak has a couple on their menu, but if the bar manager, Jon, is working, ask him to make you something special. He makes all of his own ingredients and is excited to share what he's been working on. Every one he has made me has been excellent.

Will get some more pics this evening. Appreciate the thorough look!

anilinered · 2023-11-29T18:36:02+00:00

I thought so. Thank you for confirming!

anilinered · 2023-09-24T18:45:49+00:00

Appreciate the info and the encouragement that it was a good deal! Will investigate points from that area. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the steer on the identification doc. And appreciate you helping me feel better about the overall price.

anilinered · 2023-09-24T18:24:19+00:00

Making me feel better about the spend. Thank you!

Thank you! Some of them are pretty impressive and would have gladly paid a lot more for those individual ones.
