	title of this thread your message I agree with Barry. The Chinese are as legit as Vitra is when it comes to producing those clocks. Nelson never worked with either of them. Want to know how much more "authentic" the Herman Miller Eames storage unit is than the ones made by Modernica? When Herman Miller reintroduced the units, they were actually manufactured by Modernica (which had been making them for several years already). Modernica affixed the HM / Eames tags, and drop shipped the storage units to Herman Miller dealers. Herman Miller was just re-labeling an existing knockoff. As for that Barcelona chair that you can't afford... go ahead and buy one. They're ALL knockoffs! Almost every Knoll classic was originally manufactured by some other company. The only difference between the "real" one and a better knockoff is that Florence Knoll paid for the right to affix the Knoll label. If you love the label more than the design, then keep waiting. associated web images (optional) associated web link (optional) your email your password create a forums account \| you forgot your password?
