I love this chair so much but i could not afford the price, so i went searching for something similar, and i found it on http://www.seatingcorner.com, for a third of the price.
I recently picked up what looks exactly like a Poul Volther Frem Rojle teak 370 Model. The only image i find online look exactly like it down to the finest details, HOWEVER mine has 5 spindles in the back instead of 4…The top piece of teak is also shaped similar but still has a bit different of a look to it.
I know with some eames chairs differences like a 5 leg chair and a 4 leg chair mean it is more than likely a replica/ knock off. well i am unsure what to think of this chair with 5 spindles.
Either I have acquired a slightly different/ rare version or i have in my possession a very believable replica. The chair online says that it is really rare and i am having a horribly difficult time locating any information.
I WAS HOPING YOU GUYS MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP!
if you can I would greatly appreciate any information you might be able to provide me…
