I bought these chairs as a set of four vintage Knoll Barcelona chairs with a matching coffee table (all are available; see my other listings) in 2000 from an insurance company in West Des Moines, Iowa, when they remodeled their offices, so the chairs have had only 2 owners: the insurance company and me. In our home, these beautiful chairs were mostly decorative and have rarely been used for the past 26 years. These chairs are stamped with K P 2 on the bottom of the front left corner of the seats. One of the chairs has a label sewn on to the seat cushion dated 1/16/70 (see photo).
The chair frames are stainless steel (not chrome) and the cushion leather is original. I had the foam inside replaced and the leather straps replaced for safety. All work was done by a well-known local restoration company. The back cushions are in very good condition with just a few scratches on the seams. The seat cushion are also in very good vintage condition with visible signs of wear on the front edges. One has more wear than the other. The chair frames have no dings, dents, or scratches.
When the straps were replaced, I did not think to save the Knoll label, but these chairs have been verified as authentic by two local furniture experts, including the MillerKnoll rep of Iowa, who came to my home for an in person authentication. Contact me for more photos or information.
This is your chance to own a matched set of authentic vintage Barcelona chairs at a remarkable price!

All work was done by a well-known local restoration company. The back cushions are in very good condition with just a few scratches on the seams. The front cushion are also in very good vintage condition with visible signs of wear on the front edge of the seats. One has more wear than the other. The chair frames have no dings, dents, or scratches. Each seat cushion has a strap that buckles onto the supporting leather straps, and each back cushion has a strap that snaps onto the back leather straps. All exist and work as original except for one seat cushion where one end of the strap has become unstitched. (See photo) It would be easy to repair, or just tuck it under the strap. The chairs are stamped with K P 2 on the underside of the front left corner of the seat. less
