Can you tell a $3 chair from a $3000 chair?

Do these look like the chairs in your doctor's office? Na, probably not. A truer statement has never been uttered. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" These Eero Saarien chairs from the early 60's can command up to $1000 each. This particular set is on ebay for $3000. Regardless if it's Eames, Herman Miller or another mid-century artist, 50's , 60's and even 70's furniture can be truly astounding in its value. Clean lines, comfort and modern, the appeal of these is across the board from a newbie in their first apartment to a true collector who appreciates western contemporary. 

Saarien may be one of the most respected and accomplished designer and engineer of the mid century......me, personally. I'd rather have a barcalounger!
