the real deal.

we recently were browsing through the wright auctions website, looking through the catalog of an upcoming auction of scandinavian design, and spotted this:

126

Kerstin Horlin-Holmquist

Eva chair

Nordiska Kompaniets Verkstader Nykoping

Sweden, 1958

beech, upholstery

29 w x 33 d x 38.5 h inches

Estimate: $3,000–5,000

um, looks rather familiar, right? (and also looks radically different in a plain linen, i might add).

now that we've seen the real deal with an auction estimate of 3-5K, i wonder if anyone's opinion of the anthro rip-off homage has changed?
