I don't think they're 8 grand a piece, in fact by Knoll they'd be less than 8 grand for the pair.Originally Posted by SField
They are, I checked Knoll's price list.
Everyone and their mother has Barcelona chairs. Yawwwn.Originally Posted by Connemara
Yes I know, that's the downside of it. However, they're almost always fake. You can find a fake Barcelona for 800, though I'd rather add a digit and have the real one. I don't expect plebs to understand.

Really? Because back when I had no style whatsoever and looked at generic catalogues to dictate what I bought, I did in fact purchase 4 Barcelona Chairs at about $4200 a piece from Knoll. And I'm almost positive they were SS and not chrome. This was 6 years ago from a shop in SoHo, I doubt the prices could have changed that much.

^ Must have been Chrome and with a lower quality leather then, because my list here, straight off their website says that SS with the best leather is about $8 000. Whatever, there's no need to argue, the most important thing is that I like them, a lot.

However 'low' quality it was, they were great and looked fantastic, if you want your apartment to look like a law firm's lobby.

I did not say it was a low quality, I said lower. As in "not as high as the other". Of course they were great, we're not talking about some cheap knockoff.
I hope you are happy with them!

They're long, long gone. I like to think I've grown up since then.

I think the Barcelona chairs are gorgeous. I also think it's ridiculous to care who else likes or has them.Originally Posted by mafoofan
I like them and always will but I don't like living with them. I found them uncomfortable to sit in for a long period of time and I found them in general, to be very fussy.

Thanks for the link but they do not describe or give any specific info about it. Is it a one off thing or have they produced many? Is it for sale anywhere?
Do you think buying that is priced like buying a car?
