Authentic Eames Aluminum Group?
Hi, I just bought what I think is an authentic Herman Miller Eames Aluminum Group chair, but I was curious if anyone could authenticate it for me?

I'd guess the age at being 15 years, 4 months, plus about a week.

Nice chair, BTW.

the worth
acrid,

Your pedestrian (at best) chair is worth what someone is willing to pay. Have you ever considered doing your own homework. In the time it took you to ask twice you could have looked on eBay and seen that there are several listed for $425.00 or best offer. This is not a "free valuation site". Get with the program.
