Ok guys, please help me. My aunt absolutely loves fancy furniture, the only problem is that it's so expensive! I want to get her this chair she wants so badly. It's called the Barcelona Chair, and personally it looks uncomfortable but people keep telling me it's the greatest piece of furniture ever made. They also tell me to get a reproduction or I will be paying thousands of dollars for one chair! Bottom line is that I came across this website that offers a Barcelona chair and ottoman for $665.00 on sale and that's the cheapest I have found them! Am I doing something wrong or are these things just really that expensive?

The original Barcelona Chair was designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for the German Pavilion at the 1929 Barcelona Exposition. They are now being manufactured by Knoll and the going price is a bit over $4K.

This is the wrong forum since we deal with Arts & Crafts Movement designs and not Modernist pieces.

Good luck in your search.
